I’ve noticed BTC on average has 0.61KB per transaction  
Beam’s average is 0.22KB  
Monero’s average is 14.7KB  
Zcash’s average is 5.27KB

This data I’ve retrieved comes from [https://medium.com/beam-mw/whats-the-difference-between-monero-zcash-and-beam-953eafd89354](https://medium.com/beam-mw/whats-the-difference-between-monero-zcash-and-beam-953eafd89354). I believe the calculations weren’t based off an unfair data set. The article isn’t biased though I welcome any information others want to share.
