Title: Zero fee Transaction Post by: BitCoinDream on January 15, 2014, 09:12:51 PM Suppose I have made three transactions with zero fee. Now I have made the fourth transaction with a good transaction fee. In this case, wont the miner be forced to take the first three in his block to take the fourth one's transaction fee ?

Yes, but I would be surprised if miners would check for that. Title: Re: Zero fee Transaction Post by: BitCoinDream on January 15, 2014, 09:37:09 PM You mean if they all depend on one another?

I understand miners wont check for that, but I can see zero fee transactions dont get confirmed these days as the network tends to accept paid transactions only. So if someone cover zero fee transactions this way, can those transactions remain unconfirmed anymore ?

Until miners start noticing the profit that they can gain by looking at the fees of child transactions. |
