Title: Why do I get a dust error when my output is 2500 Satoshis
Post by: JayCoin on January 25, 2016, 06:09:35 AM
trying to send a transaction with one 2500 satoshi  output (P2PKH), one P2PKH input and one op_return output with 2500 satoshi fee.  Won't send in sendrawtransaction RPC on bitcoin-qt 11.2.

Get "dust" error.  I thought the minimum output was much lower than 2500 satoshi.

Is this a bug or or something else? What am I missing?

using bitcoinjs-lib to build transaction.

Current default dust limit is 2730 satoshi. It used to be 546, but that was changed due to the spam attacks.
