Seems like an attempt to spam the network as well, without paying any fees.

The associated blockchain info page is a symphony of beeping.

Wonder if it is a restless miner trying to force fees to go from zero to 1 satoshi?

BS meter. When dealing with people like cunicula, be sure to set it to high-range mode to avoid overloads. Smiley
I used to do this, but then I discovered the forum's "ignore" feature.

coinicula also made me activate this highly useful feature.

cunicula is right, the pricing is inefficient because the block size limits are arbitrary, and without a central entity controlling them it's unlikely that prices will settle at an optimal value. Actually, just read his posts again, they provide an accurate explanation of the problem.

The Bitcoin devs just had no better idea than an arbitrary limit, and since it's not an easy problem, it's hard to blame them. We can can probably deal with high future fees by introducing extra systems that use Bitcoin as backing. Thus we have limits that are only somewhat high now but probably low on the long run.



It's amazing how people just use some sort of mob-truth-finding and wander on. It seems that "Haha, I ignored you" remains the best BS-indicator.

Cunicula (I didn't ignore him) raises his point, in that blockchain-space is currently "too cheap" and thus wasted.
But he talks utter nonsense, when his solution goes about centralizing control over the blockchain.
If anyone wanted a centralized infrastructure in digital money world, they could just as well use
paypal, web money, e-money, Linden dollars... and whatnot.

There already is a price for getting satoshi-outputs into the blockchain.  The problem is,
that the dice-games (which are probably #1 generators of satoshi-outputs) give the players
no choice for opting out, yet. (Short of stopping bitcoin dice-gambling at all, of course.)

It's like as if all groceries gave you the shopping cart as a present (for you to keep), each time
you go shopping there (and effectively you have to buy it with your money, as the prices of the
goods would then have to be set such as to include the price of the cart).
