A Poisson process is a random event process where events occur independently at a stable average rate, but with unpredictable spacing.

Script Usage Taxonomy
257,121 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.

Protocol detection is based on known marker patterns. Absence of a marker does not imply absence of meaning.
⬡ Script of the Day — Data Carrier (OP_RETURN)
What it does: This script begins with OP_RETURN, which terminates execution and marks the output as unspendable. The remaining bytes carry arbitrary data.

Why it matters: Currently the most common method for data publication. Used by protocols like B://, MAP, AIP, and TreeChat for files, metadata, and social content.

* 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.
AI Network Analysis
Gemini Pro
Chain Status

Chain convergence normal. No deep reorg activity observed. Block production consistent with expected PoW cadence. The network operates on a single dominant active chain tip, ensuring consensus.

Over the 24.8-hour window, 145 blocks were mined. The average block interval was 10.3 minutes, closely tracking the 10-minute target. Variance was observed, with 53 blocks found in under 5 minutes and 23 blocks taking longer than 20 minutes to find.

Economic Activity

A total of 119,496 transactions were processed in the 24-hour period.

Block activity averaged 824 transactions, with a peak of 4,965 transactions in a single block and a minimum of 1.

The real-time mempool snapshot shows 278 pending transactions, occupying approximately 51 MB. This indicates moderate demand, with ample network capacity available.

Mining Distribution

Hash power distribution over the last 145 blocks is spread across multiple pools, with no single entity approaching a majority share.

Top miners by blocks found:

taal.com: 21.4%

CUVVE: 17.9%

GorillaPool: 14.5%

qdlnk: 13.8%

Mining-Dutch: 11.7%

SA100: 9%

Other pools contributed the remaining ~11.7%.

Whale Activity

Significant value movement was observed, with 223 transactions exceeding 100 BSV.

Tier breakdown: 2 transactions over 10,000 BSV, 39 between 1,000-10,000 BSV, and 182 between 100-1,000 BSV.

The two largest transactions, valued at ~27,925 BSV and ~27,675 BSV, were neutral 1-input to 2-output transfers, typical of wallet management or change address creation. This pattern of high-value neutral transfers can indicate internal custody movements, exchange settlements, or OTC desk activity.

Script Taxonomy

Output analysis shows a blend of financial and data-carrying purposes. PAYMENT outputs (value transfer) constituted 56.2% of the total, while DATA_PUBLICATION outputs made up 42.9%. Programmable CONTRACTS accounted for 0.9%.

By structure, standard P2PKH outputs were most common, followed by OP_RETURN data carriers. Ordinal inscriptions and 20 unique custom contract structures were also observed.

Protocols detected include MAP (1027), TreeChat (681), B:// (609), and AIP (358), primarily utilizing data publication scripts.

Node Software

The network's peer list shows a healthy distribution of client software versions, indicating ongoing maintenance and upgrades by node operators.

The majority client is `/Bitcoin SV:1.2.0/`, run by 48% of observed nodes. The prior major version, 1.1.x, is run by a combined 43% of nodes.

Network stable with moderate economic activity.
