Title: Sustained transaction averages above 170 per hour.
Post by: MoonShadow on November 25, 2010, 02:08:38 AM
I see that, according to bitcoinwatch.com, that the average transactions per hour is above 170 per hour, ringing in at about 22 per block.  It was not so long ago that the average was less than 20 per hour, counting the award transactions.  I think that this shows that there is a grey market of vendors unknown to the forum, and that is much of what has been driving up the market price.

I believe it was just transaction spamming.

This has been happening on and off for a while. Check bitcoinexplorer and it's pretty clear whether it's legit activity or spam.
