BiS Mempool API: Real-Time Insights for Bitcoin-Native Assets

We recently launched one of the most powerful Bitcoin Mempool APIs on the market, tailored to strengthen the Bitcoin ecosystem. 🔢🟧⚡With real-time access to Cardinal, Ordinal, and Runic UTXOs, the BiS Mempool API equips traders, developers, and businesses to streamline transactions, reduce costly errors, and build a seamless experience on Bitcoin Layer-1.

What is the Bitcoin Mempool?

The Bitcoin mempool, or “memory pool,” is a temporary holding space where unconfirmed transactions await confirmation in a block. Think of it as a “waiting room” where transactions queue up based on fees and priority. Accessing this data is crucial for various reasons:

• Constructing Transactions: Since Bitcoin has an average block time of 10 minutes, waiting for transaction confirmation for constructing a new transaction is a bad UX for users. To overcome this, applications need to index Mempool and find the latest UTXOs and their information to construct a new transaction without waiting for tx confirmation.
• Confirmation Timing: Estimate when transactions will be added to a block by comparing them with others in the mempool.
• Network Activity: Analyze mempool data to understand current block space usage before transactions are confirmed.
• Fee Estimation: Calculate optimal transaction fees based on real-time mempool conditions.

BiS Mempool API for Runes and Ordinals

By integrating Mempool API insights, this update supports in-depth research for those interested in Bitcoin-native assets, giving them timely and actionable data within the Bitcoin Layer-1 ecosystem.

Use Cases of the Mempool API

The Mempool API supports a diverse range of Bitcoin-native tools and applications:

• Traders, Data Analysts, Developers, and Telegram Bots: Traders and analysts refine strategies with real-time transaction data, while Telegram bots send instant market alerts, enabling quick reactions.
• Wallets and Portfolio Trackers Wallets and trackers use the API for real-time transaction updates, empowering users to adjust portfolios based on insights.
• Tools that construct Bitcoin Transactions To construct a valid Bitcoin Transaction, tools need access to the latest UTXOs of a wallet, both in blockchain and in mempool. Also they need to know the type of UTXOs; cardinal, ordinal, or runic; to not spend unwanted assets while constructing the transaction.
• Exchanges: Exchanges and centralized exchanges leverage the Mempool API to manage high transaction volumes efficiently, optimizing deposits, withdrawals, and trading operations.
• NFT Marketplaces: NFT marketplaces supporting Ordinals, utilize the Mempool API to monitor and manage transaction flows, ensuring timely confirmation of listings and transfers.

Our Plans Ahead

As we continue refining our services, several key upgrades are in the planning stage, and we welcome your feedback:

1. Ecosystem Metrics and Insights: Provide enhanced metrics and insights to the Bitcoin ecosystem, enabling our community to make informed decisions with accessible data and analytics.
2. Custom Real-Time Alerts: Introduce user-defined alerts for significant mempool shifts, including volume and fee changes, integrated seamlessly into existing workflows.
3. Accelerated RBF Transactions: Enable on-demand fee increases using Replace-by-Fee (RBF) for faster transaction confirmations during peak times.
4. AI Insights: Utilize AI to deliver richer insights from mempool data, helping users optimize transaction strategies.
