Interpretation

At times projects release new tokens and NFTs at specific block heights. This can lead to congestion as demand for block space increases at that specific height. This can in turn prevent regular transactors from using the network.

Potential Root Causes

NFT or Token Launch at a specific point in time increases demand for block space. Market-driven events, such as market crashes, also tend to increase demand for block space.
