Title: Statistics for fees in confirmed transactions (not mempool)
Post by: tublo on September 01, 2017, 09:21:40 PM
Every statistics about bitcoin fees that I see are made considering unconfirmed transactions (mempool), eg. https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#2h. I would like some info about confirmed transactions, for instance, median fee (in bits/kB) per block. I can not find anything like that.
This (https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/4v0f7x/analysis_of_fees_in_blocks/) seems to be what I am looking for, but the results are not available anymore.

Could you not just look at a block on something like blockchain.info and do fees/size to get the median fee for a block.
or: mining reward - 12.5 / blocksize in bytes = average fee per byte? is that what you're after?
 
bitcoinfees.21.co will look at confirmed transactions for the past 24 hours and say the amount that is median fee-wise.

I would like something more detailed, like information about the fee distribution in a block and its evolution over time. For instance, how many transactions paid more the 50 bits/kB in block 481000? What is the median and the 10th percentile fee in each block?
