E.g. a major cost to the&#xA;&gt; network is the UTXO impact of transactions, but since the limit is blind&#xA;&gt; to UTXO impact a miner would gain less income if substantially factoring&#xA;&gt; UTXO impact into its fee calculations; and without fee impact users have&#xA;&gt; little reason to optimize their UTXO behavior.&#xA;&#xA;Along the lines of aligning incentives with a diversity of costs to a &#xA;variety of network participants, I am curious about reactions to Justus&#39; &#xA;general approach:&#xA;&#xA;http://bitcoinism.liberty.me/2015/02/09/economic-fallacies-and-the-block-size-limit-part-2-price-discovery/&#xA;&#xA;I realize it relies on pie-in-the-sky ideas like micropayment channels, &#xA;but I wonder if it&#39;s a worthy long-term ideal direction for this stuff.</html></oembed>
