About this Chart

Rolling 30-day annualized volatility of the hourly average transaction fee is the standard deviation of log-returns on each hour’s average fee, taken over the trailing 720 hours and annualized.

It quantifies how sharply the average fee fluctuates. Low volatility signals consistently predictable costs, while high volatility reveals frequent congestion-driven spikes in the average fee.
