Zero fee transaction

[bitterbit]

Is there a way to create zero fee transaction anymore.The only way I knew was Blockchain.info and it seems they have removed it now.

PS: I need it for technical purpose.

You can create it by hand using Bitcoin Core's createrawtransaction RPC.

In Electrum you can setup the fee as you like.

you can use bitcoin-tx that comes with bitcoin-core to create any custom transaction including one with zero fees. But I don't think the network will accept such transactions. Once I tried pushing such a tx (which contained valid data) using https://blockchain.info/pushtx and it was rejected. While Electrum allows adjusting fees to custom values, it does not allow creating zero fee transactions.

There are a lot of wallets that allow you to manually set the transaction fee to zero but that is not recommended beacuse it may take a long time to confirm the trasaction due to it's low priority.

Was this a change in one of their latest releases, because I've done zero fee tx with electrum a while ago when I transferred some bitcoins to a paper wallet!

I'll summarise
Electrum - not possible
Coinb.in - not possible
Bitcoin core - Downloading chain
Any other way?

I am using Electrum 2.6.4 on Linux, and when I attempted to make the fee zero, received a message saying this is not allowed. I do not know when this was introduced.

Maybe it was this:

# Release 2.5.4
 * increase MIN_RELAY_TX_FEE to avoid dust transactions

You could try with an older version of electrum.

you can set up fee transaction to get fast confirmation but i don't know how to make zero fee transaction, i think you can't send without fee transaction in every transaction you made.

[bitterbit]

It's not for a payment.Its for a technical report or analysis.Please suggest a working method or wallet.

It really isn't worth it. I wait once 2 weeks because of to less fee.

I think you can still create the Zero fee transaction with blockchain. Don't know if it is unavailable with the new update
But Zero fee transaction are usually done by scammers to reverse back sent bitcoin because that transaction never confirms

Why you need them ?

It's the third time I'm writing this,I need it for making a technical report on Bitcoin transaction.

If you just for created 0 free, use desktop/cold wallet, like electrum, you can custom the transaction fee.

Just FYI.

You should be careful about trying to send BTC with zero transaction fee, it'll likely take forever for the transaction to complete. Just create a wallet with Coinbase, I've never had to pay any transaction fees when sending BTC  . Although I think you might have to pay if you're sending extremely small amounts like 20k Sat (I've never tried it personally).

[Bloxy]

You can but the confirmation time will be a lot longer. It is highly not recommended but you can use the Bitcoin Core client.

You can't predict the outcome of a zero fee tx. It depends on coin age and amount, the older and bigger, the better. I've done some of those tx myself and they were all successful, but the coins were older than a year and the amounts were 1 BTC and above!

In little part I join this question:

As I know in classic (old) Multibit is impossible to change manually transaction fee, and it was always 10k sat.

Do any other version of MultiBit have option to change manually fee? If so, which is that?
