With the release of 0.8.2 organofcorti and I both thought it would be useful for pool users and merchants to understand the fee rules used by pool operators so that miners could make a choice of pool based partly on whether they supported those rules and merchants could understand the fees they needed to pay.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=104664.msg2312307#msg2312307To achieve this aim we would like pool operators to provide the information below:
- bitcoind version - version you are using to build/validate blocks
- blockminsize - minimum block size you will create
- blockmaxsize - maximum block size you will create
- blockprioritysize - size dedicated to low priority/fee tx's
- mintxfee - the minimum tx fee to include in majority of block
- mintxrelayfee - the minimum tx fee relayed (although doubt relevant)
- Other - any other unique/special features of your tx selection process
If we manage to get enough responses (50% of the hashing power?) organofcorti agreed to create a new sticky thread called "Mining Pool Fee Rules" to collate the information.
