v1.2.7 — Fee Signal Correction & Median Insight

This release tightens the accuracy of BCI’s mempool fee metrics and adds a clearer signal for observing real fee pressure.

Fee Rate Calculation Fix

BCI previously overstated average fee rates by summing multiple mempool fee fields that represent alternative views of the same transaction, not additive values.

Average fee rate is now calculated using the transaction’s base fee only, aligning the metric with actual mempool reality. Reported fee rates may appear lower as a result, but are now correct.

New: Median Fee Rate

BCI now displays the Median Fee Rate (sats/vByte) alongside the average.

• Average reflects total blockspace pressure
• Median reflects typical user behavior

Together, they reveal fee dynamics that were previously hidden—especially when dust is filtered or size-based views are enabled.

This update improves interpretability of mempool conditions without changing how BCI samples or filters data. The result is a clearer, more honest picture of fee behavior across transaction sizes.
