These Coindesk guys crack me up with their 5-seconds old breaking news.  It's like some dude is just sitting around bored at work, watching the charts, going "Shit look at this, I need to pump out an article real quick!!"  And BAM!  Article published, just like that.

Data from Blockchain points to a steady increase in the number of daily transactions, although that change is not followed by a corresponding rise in transaction fees. This, in turn, points to a greater number of non-commercial transactions taking place.

urrh, what? what the hell are non-commercial transactions and why would they carry a higher fee?
