Methodology
The calculation begins by ranking mempool transactions based on how much fees they are paying. A block template is then applied to these transactions with the goal of identifying which transactions rational miners would pick if they were to build a block at that minute The feerate of the highest transaction that would still be included in that block template is then showcased.
