Title: Prioritize your own transactions in bitcoind - Block generation?
Post by: GoldInThemGPUs on May 25, 2011, 07:33:20 PM
I'm curious as to whether or not bitcoind currently has any method for prioritizing its own transactions for picking which transactions to include in the block it is attempting to generate.  I would like to avoid paying the 0.01 fees for new inputs/large transactions, and have the hashing power to do so in what I consider a reasonable time frame.

If it can not, has anybody made a modification bitcoind to do this sort of thing?

modify the .cpp so every transaction gets 1 priority?

I don't want to alter the priority of other transactions (fees & freebies), I just want to guarantee that my own sends are included for free when I successfully generate the block.

This pull request has all you need:

All transactions for addresses in the wallet are included for free even if normal rules require a fee.
