Abstract: We document a high variation of bitcoin fees not only over time but also within blocks. We also document variations in block capacity usage. Even though fees tend to be higher when blocks are fuller, the blockchain rarely runs at capacity. Fees are higher when recipients spend their funds sooner, when the payment is to and from an exchange, and during weekdays. We use a simple model of cooperative price discrimination to shed light on our findings.

Everyone interested is welcome to attend!
