Taxi drivers can't pick out higher-paying\ncustomers in advance.\n\nI'm sorry, I missed your \"if everyone is paying it\". This changes a lot. I\nagree with you: if everyone wants to pay much then it becomes unreliable.\n\nBut I don't think that is something we can avoid with a small constant\nfactor block size increase, and we don't do the world a service by making\nit look like it works for longer.\n\nLet's grow within bounderies set by technology and centralization pressure\nthat we can agree on. Let the market decide whether how they will that will\nlow volume reliable transactions and/or high volume unreliable ones.\n\n-- \nPieter\n-------------- next part --------------\nAn HTML attachment was scrubbed...\nURL: \u003chttp://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/attachments/20150811/59b198e8/attachment.html\u003e"}
