However, a systematic evaluation of the real-world impact of TFMs is still absent. Using rich data from the Ethereum blockchain, mempool, and exchanges, we study the effect of EIP-1559, one of the first deployed TFMs that depart from the traditional first-price auction paradigm. We conduct a rigorous and comprehensive empirical study to examine its causal effect on blockchain transaction fee dynamics, transaction waiting time and security. Our results show that EIP-1559 improves the user experience by making fee estimation easier, mitigating intra-block difference of gas price paid, and reducing users' waiting times. However, EIP-1559 has only a small effect on gas fee levels and consensus security. In addition, we found that when Ether's price is more volatile, the waiting time is significantly higher. We also verify that a larger block size increases the presence of siblings. These findings suggest new directions for improving TFM.\r\n\r\nPaper on arXiv: https://arxiv.org/abs/2201.05574\r\nCode and Script on GitHub: https://github.com/SciEcon/EIP1559","description_withheld":null,"homepage":"https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/K7UYPI","introduced_date":"2022-04-10","introduced_date_note":null,"introduced_by":{"paper":"/paper/empirical-analysis-of-eip-1559-transaction","title":"Empirical Analysis of EIP-1559: Transaction Fees, Waiting Time, and Consensus Security","first_author":"Yulin Liu","url":null},"license":{"name":"CC BY: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","url":"https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/K7UYPI"},"modalities":[{"name":"Tabular","url":"/datasets/modality/tabular"}],"tasks":[],"languages":[{"name":"English","url":"/datasets/language/english"}],"variants":["Replication Data for: \"Empirical Analysis of EIP-1559: Transaction Fees, Waiting Time, and Consensus Security\""],"data_loaders":[],"num_papers_in_archive":2,"source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28"},"benchmarks":[],"papers_with_a_benchmark_row":[],"syntology_totals":{"read_at":"2026-09-24T18:15:14+00:00","papers_with_samples":0,"samples_harvested":0,"samples_ran":0,"samples_unverified":0,"pointer_only_for_licence":0,"papers_with_no_sample_that_ran":0,"note":"the per-paper counts above, summed; not a rate"},"papers_note":"The archive never published its papers-using-dataset list; these are papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks."}
