🔖 Title: tx max fee 🏷️ Categories: bitcoin-dev 👥 Authors: • Andrew Baine ( Creepy Eagle ) • Peter Todd ( Noisy Bovid ) • Kalle Rosenbaum ( Jolly Bedbug ) • vjudeu at gazeta.pl ( Harsh Felidae ) • Erik Aronesty ( Stale Meerkat ) • Tom Harding ( Gigantic Damselfly ) 🗒️ Conversation Summary: A proposal to change the transaction "max fee" to output amounts could help prevent spam/DOS attacks, but may negatively impact applications like OpenTimestamps. Another proposal to block transactions with fees higher than the sum of outputs can be bypassed by splitting transactions. Paying high fees in Bitcoin can incentivize honest mining during state-level censorship attacks. Transactions with high fees can be replaced by multiple transactions with lower fees, but they may take longer to be processed. 📅 Messages Date Range: 2023-05-07 to 2023-05-11 ✉️ Message Count: 9 📚 Total Characters in Messages: 29979
