Title: Big payout on transaction fees. Post by: mogrith on October 13, 2013, 06:48:32 PM http://blockchain.info/block-height/263392 (http://blockchain.info/block-height/263392)
I have some GH/s on cex.io and saw an unusual payout on a block ~32.67BTC As you can see from the blockchain 7.67229222 BTC from transaction fees. So in the future as more and more BTC are being used and block rewards have been reduced will the payback from mining be more from the TX fess than the block reward? If millions (billions?) of dollars are moving everyday each block could be worth a lot. Title: Re: Big payout on transaction fees.

That must be why the transaction fees earned in this block was so large.
Transaction: https://blockchain.info/tx/e5fe246846c49d40f3e47bd54806c86a101d6ea6b05c9d473b0e59dedf101739 All other transactions (142) only earned 0.07 BTC in fees.

I think that is kind of unusual and will not become common even if millions of people start using bitcoins.
