Hi alicexbt
The vulnerability reporting process requires communication and resolution via a
small group of individuals [0] rather than through open collaboration between
any contributors on the repo. There are clearly examples where the process is

One piece of advice I'd offer to you and Michael is to consider whether
your responses are effective. To persuade other people it takes more than

Can we learn something from past?
Bitcoin's initial release was in 2009 with one developer and few others
experimenting with it. It is considered decentralized in 2023 however w
Regardless of the submitter's rationale, it is easy to work around any rule
that denies mempool inclusion based on fee proportion: if you have plenty,
add inputs from your own wallet and return to yourself; if not, borrow them
and return to the lender, maybe with interest.

Thanks for this Andrew.

if we forget about backward compatibility and the impact of other types of
transactions, then the following two options would be possible:
a) allocate only up to 10% of the space in the block for non-standard
transactions - then all senders of non-standard transactions will compete
with each other
Another use case for paying more fees than outputs is to incentivize
honest mining when Bitcoin is under a state-level censorship attack.
If it's really important to me that my transaction goes through, I
might be willing to set a fee at 99x the output value. It's the only
way bitcoin could work in

Erik,
I'm curious about what you believe to be "non-economic" txs. As far as I
can tell, any transaction included in the blockchain is economically
motivated by the very evidence of fees paid. That said, for the sake of
argument if we assume that there exists a category of information that

Concept ACK,
The only way we can hope to have productive discussion is to minimize the
amount of effort spent in miscommunication especially that which arises
from unclear terminology. Which exact words refer to which meanings is
somewhat arbitrary, (look at math, particularly abstract math), but

I see it was merged since my original post. I agree that is a very short
window of time. In particular, if a long-time Core contributor wasn't able
to attend the in-person meeting or last week's IRC meeting, they'd have had

With respect Steve the process for Vasil was keeping Vasil's PR open for up to
