Mining and Transaction Relay Policy
|
||||||
|
=========================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The minimum block feerate (`-blockmintxfee`) has been changed to 1 satoshi per kvB. It can still be changed using the
|
||||||
|
configuration option.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The default minimum relay feerate (`-minrelaytxfee`) and incremental relay feerate (`-incrementalrelayfee`) have been
|
||||||
|
changed to 100 satoshis per kvB. They can still be changed using their respective configuration options, but it is
|
||||||
|
recommended to change both together if you decide to do so.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Other minimum feerates (e.g. the dust feerate, the minimum returned by the fee estimator, and all feerates used by the
|
||||||
|
wallet) remain unchanged. The mempool minimum feerate still changes in response to high volume but more gradually, as a
|
||||||
|
result of the change to the incremental relay feerate.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note that unless these lower defaults are widely adopted across the network, transactions created with lower fee rates
|
||||||
|
are not guaranteed to propagate or confirm. The wallet feerates remain unchanged; `-mintxfee` must be changed before
|
||||||
|
attempting to create transactions with lower feerates using the wallet.
