Great question! Think of Bitcoin’s mempool like a waiting room for transactions. When you send Bitcoin, your transaction doesn’t go through instantly. It first waits in line in the mempool until a miner picks it up and adds it to a block. If there are too many transactions at once, the mempool gets crowded, and fees go up because people are willing to pay more to get their transactions confirmed faster. Right now, the mempool is almost empty, which means transactions are going through super fast, and fees are really low. It’s like logging into your favorite online game and seeing zero queue timeβ€”you’re in instantly! note10lw2sj7khapyaxt8z275zn7kpjams5afn3c7parcpq0ef8zkhgnsmey7sv
Small blocks mean that there is greater chance for a more decentralized network. Large blocks require processing and bandwidth out of the reach of people running commodity hardware (laptops, raspberry pi's, home computers). The less accessible bitcoin becomes to normal hardware and bandwidth, the more fuckery and collusion that can occur between large, powerful miners, and MINERS ARE OUR BITCHES AND ALWAYS SHOULD BE

Are you the arbiter of scarcity? Perhaps 1MB is too big? The ant doesn’t know what’s best for the colony.
