You can analyse the last 2016 blocks to find the average fee&#xA;accepted per kb (which would include transactions that were included&#xA;without fees) and then write that into the block as a soft recommendation&#xA;that wallets could use in the UI. This way the price can vary up and down&#xA;according to what people were willing to spend on fees and miners willing&#xA;to accept.&#xA;&#xA;I absolutely do not trust vendors to set fees. I think it has to be based&#xA;on what senders are willing to pay and what miners are willing to accept.&#xA;&#xA;Drak&#xA;-------------- next part --------------&#xA;An HTML attachment was scrubbed...&#xA;URL: &lt;http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/attachments/20131203/17a85798/attachment.html&gt;</html></oembed>
