No it's not. The cost is only incurred in the transactions actually get mined, and unlike before the drop appears to be well under the break-even orphan cost of transactions; we've got no reason to think the clearance rate of these low-fee transactions will be significant. But anyway, mostly I'm writing this to register my strong opposition knowing full well that I don't expect it to change your minds. -- 'peter'[:-1]@petertodd.org 0000000000000000eb671d932a8d310e8ab963c53b2be8a27bd5de2a712c2f59
