Script Usage Taxonomy
337,824 outputs
This section describes how Bitcoin scripts were used in this scan window. We classify activity in three layers: purpose, structure, and protocol.
  • Purpose describes why an output exists (payment, data publication, or programmable conditions).
  • Structure describes how that purpose is implemented in script (e.g., P2PKH, OP_RETURN, conditional envelope).
  • Protocol describes the semantic meaning of embedded data when identifiable (e.g., MAP, B://).
Because Bitcoin Script does not explicitly declare intent, some classifications are inferred from structure and are labeled as heuristic where appropriate.

⬡ Script of the Day — Ordinal Inscription
What it does: This script embeds data inside a conditional branch. The OP_FALSE OP_IF block carries the payload (marked "ord"), while the P2PKH suffix enforces signature-based ownership.

Why it matters: Encodes ownership into individual satoshis. Transferable by spending the UTXO.

* Spendable metadata (heuristic): Scripts with signature verification followed by data removed via OP_DROP. Metadata not consumed by validation logic but remains on-chain.
Unique structures: A contract structure is a normalized script skeleton with variable data (hashes, signatures, pubkeys) removed.

Chain Status

Chain convergence normal. No deep reorg activity observed. The network is consolidated on a single active chain tip. The presence of 158 stale or headers-only tips is a normal artifact of Proof-of-Work mining competition and does not indicate network instability.

Block production cadence is consistent with the expected PoW target. Over a 24-hour period, the average block interval was 9.7 minutes. Production was uneven, with 46 blocks found in under 5 minutes and 19 blocks taking longer than 20 minutes, which is typical statistical variance.

Economic Activity

A total of 160,408 transactions were processed over the full 24-hour period.

Block fullness varied significantly, with an average of 1,106 transactions per block. The most active block contained 10,240 transactions, while the least active contained only 1.

The real-time mempool snapshot shows 747 pending transactions and a total size of approximately 1.46 GB, indicating a moderate level of sustained demand for block space. This represents underutilized capacity, not network congestion.

Mining Distribution

Hash power distribution remains multipolar. The largest single entity, Taal, contributed a combined 33.7% of blocks through its `taal.com` (23.4%) and `taal.com_Teranode` (10.3%) pools. No single mining entity exceeded the 50% threshold in the 24-hour window.

The top five miners (Taal, qdlnk, CUVVE, GorillaPool, molepool.com) accounted for approximately 75.7% of all blocks found.

Whale Activity

Significant large-value movements were observed, with 176 transactions exceeding 100 BSV.

The activity was tiered as follows: 9 transactions over 10,000 BSV, 56 transactions between 1,000 and 10,000 BSV, and 111 transactions between 100 and 1,000 BSV.

The five largest transactions, including a top movement of 110,253 BSV, were classified as "neutral." This pattern, where inputs are sent to a small number of outputs often including a change address, typically signifies internal wallet management, UTXO consolidation, or preparation for OTC trades rather than direct exchange deposits.

Script Taxonomy

Network usage was split between value transfer and data applications. Payment outputs (P2PKH) accounted for 53.3% of all new outputs created, while data publication outputs (OP_RETURN, Ordinals) comprised 46.2%. Programmable contracts represented 0.5% of activity.

A variety of data protocols were active on-chain, with MAP, B://, TreeChat, and AIP being the most frequently detected.

Script of the Day: Ordinal Inscription

What it does: This script embeds data inside a conditional `OP_FALSE OP_IF` branch, which is never executed but remains on-chain. The payload is followed by a standard P2PKH script, which enforces ownership and allows the UTXO (and its embedded data) to be transferred via a valid signature.

Why it matters: It provides a standardized method for "inscribing" data onto individual satoshis, creating transferable digital artifacts whose ownership is enforced by the Bitcoin protocol itself.

Node Software

The network's node distribution shows a plurality of operators running the latest client. `/Bitcoin SV:1.2.0/` is the majority client, representing 47% of discoverable nodes.

A significant portion of the network remains on older versions, including `1.1.0` (26%) and `1.1.1` (13%), highlighting an opportunity for improved client version coordination across the network.

Network stable with moderate economic activity.
