Title: How many bitcoins are generated thru transaction fees? Post by: rdnkjdi on August 15, 2014, 01:37:49 AM I'm interested in knowing how many bitcoins miners harvest for transaction fees ... week/day/year is fine if I can also figure out the # and avg transaction amount. I know this info has to have been studied before. Can anybody point me somewhere?

Do they go back into blocks of BTC? What happens to the transaction fees. o.o Title: Re: How many bitcoins are generated thru transaction fees?

What happens to the transaction fees. o.o The miner that was lucky enough to mine the block includes a special transaction paying himself the block reward (currently 25 btc) and also gets the fees. Often it is a pool that mines the block so the fees are either kept by the operator of the pool, or distributed fairly to the miners that contributed. Different pools have different rules regarding fees. Title: Re: How many bitcoins are generated thru transaction fees?

Like that one: https://blockchain.info/block-index/457161/0000000000000000333cd63aa28c3c7bcc2af9f2a0907e8587756516b60b0298 where you can see that miners received 87mBTC from it.

I know this info has to have been studied before. Can anybody point me somewhere? It depends. Sometimes it is 0 for fees other times it is like .3 btc total sometimes it can be higher and it most likely averages .1 or a little less btc in transaction fees per block. If you look at blockchain.info it and click on the blocks you can see the transaction fee. www.blockchain.info |
