My name's Wicked ✌️🍎🍻.
I'm an apple who loves art, math, programming, and Bitcoin.
Exit fiat, save in bitcoin, and take it into self custody.

You may not like the kinds of non-standard transactions miners are including in blocks today, but one day, you might need one confirmed yourself. It’s a strength of the network that transaction inclusion asymmetrically favors the minority.
The last 6 months in bitcoin... 
Added a menu button in the top right corner of my site. Now you can star/unstar all images at once and select which image information (title, description, or both) to search. 
Running mempool
Added little labels at the bottom of this epoch candles visualization for the genesis block date, each past halving date, and an estimated next halving date based on 10-minute blocks. 
Cleaned up the monthly, yearly, and epoch candle visualizations. All three are now updated hourly on my site. 🍻 
For this Bitcoin UTXO distribution analysis, I excluded UTXOs worth 0 sats & OP_RETURN outputs from the KPIs but included their counts and the value burned in OP_RETURN outputs at the bottom of the table: 5,112,996,066 sats (51+ BTC) that'll never see the light of day again. 
Bitcoin just had another day of perfect issuance.
24 hr ÷ 10 min/block = 144 blocks
144 × 3.125 BTC = 450 BTC 
These were some wild years for Bitcoin. Think we'll ever get another year with a return above +1,000%?

“D-coins”: bitcoin outputs worth exactly 500 BTC.
During the late 2018 crash below $4k, 500+ D-coins were spent in a matter of days (250,000+ BTC). Interesting to watch it happen around the 1-min mark in this animation.
It's officially been 300 weeks since 2020 began. Saving $50/week in bitcoin during that time would’ve turned $15k into 0.58 BTC, now worth over $63k. Saving in gold instead would’ve yielded 7.45 oz of gold, worth just over $28k.
Bitcoin’s clearly a superior savings technology.
“M-coins”: bitcoin outputs worth exactly 1,000 BTC.
There are currently only 326 M-coins in circulation.
Bitcoin Node Count by Software & Version
Bitcoin’s annualized issuance rate remains stable at just under 1%, making it the soundest money the world has ever known.
Nice, Luke's now tracking core v30 node count. Let the games begin.
