Whether that happens in some kind of&#xA;stable organised way or (as with the current code) a fairly chaotic way&#xA;doesn&#39;t change the fundamental truth: *some users will find their bitcoin&#xA;savings have become uneconomic to spend*.&#xA;&#xA;Here&#39;s a recent user complaint that provides a preview of coming&#xA;attractions:&#xA;&#xA;https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/39r3bi/breadwallet_asking_me_to_pay_over_10_network_fee/&#xA;&#xA;Hello, I&#39;m just trying to send my small Sarutobi-tips stash (12,159 bits)&#xA;&gt; onto a paper wallet. When I try to send it, a window pops up stating&#xA;&gt; &#34;insufficient funds for bitcoin network fee, reduce payment amount by 1,389&#xA;&gt; bits?&#34; This would be a fee of $0.32 to send my $2.82, leaving me with $2.50.&#xA;&#xA;&#xA;These sorts of complaints will get more frequent and more extreme in the&#xA;coming months. I realise that nobody at Blockstream is  in the position of&#xA;running an end user facing service, but many of us are .... and we will be&#xA;the ones that face the full anger of ordinary users as Bitcoin hits the&#xA;wall.&#xA;-------------- next part --------------&#xA;An HTML attachment was scrubbed...&#xA;URL: &lt;http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/attachments/20150619/94ba867c/attachment.html&gt;</html></oembed>
