Question : Transaction fees when mining block worth 6.25 BTC or less

[Transisto]

Can someone point me to a relevant discussion about the future of the blockchain when mining a block pays as low as 1.5625 BTC

Given that the current model of transaction processing doesn't scale very well, will the transaction fees be there to support a safe network ?

Where are we at with these problems ?

There's been discussion, for example http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=6284.

My current stance is that using proof-of-stake as an extra safety net will allow making do with less mining, the cost of which is supportable by tx fees.
