Replace by fee is a reasonable policy for a mining pool to have.
I haven't put much thought in replace by fee yet, but I tend to doubt it. It seems an incentive to attempt double spending (although I do understand Peter Todd's explanation on how to take measures against this, as a merchant getting ripped off from double spending).Quote
BitUndo allows sending of a transaction to them that they kept secret. Double spends are a big application of that.
Yeah, BitUndo pretends do be a nice service to the Bitcoin community of some sorts, but imho it's actually very bad that this exists.But if I'm no mistaken, BitUnfo still does distributed mining, since essentially it's "just another mining pool" (except with specific purposes and rules) right? How do they keep the transactions secret? Do they deliberately not relay any transactions until mined, or...?
