You can easily set it to 0.000005, there are many miners now and 0.0001 is not needed anymore.
You can save some satoshis that way.
Thank you for useful info.. How sure it is, a low fee transaction also get into a block?
There has always been miners and the difficulty has been increasing recently. The spam attack has ceased or at least slow down.
By default the reference client implements the minimum relay fee at 500 satoshi. Nodes will relay them if your transaction meets the requirement. This will thus give your transaction a higher chance of getting it to the miners. No one can tell if miners would include your transaction into their block. It is only a rough estimate. Even if you pay 1BTC fee, miners could still reject it. It is their choice. Most miner include transactions by the order of the transaction fee/kb, there is a optimal fee/kb at
https://www.blocktrail.com/BTC which estimates the fee that is required to get it up to the higher block.
I thought it's just 0.0001 is the normal fee.
Yes 0.0001 is the normal fee
One can not talk about normal fee.
Why do you talk about normal fee?
The sender decides the fees he want to pay and no fee is "normal or unormal.
If you pay to much fee,then you have just more chances that your sending is treated faster and if you pay to low fees or even nothing you take the risk that your sending will be confirmed only after a long time.
Or even rejected. With blockchain.info i failed twice few weeks ago to send coins without fees.
Well this happened after the coinwallet.eu & malleability thing...
Transaction never get rejected unless they aren't signed or doesn't spend the UXTO that is present. If you don't pay enough fee, it may just be dropped out of mempool. Wallet doesn't really matter when it comes to Bitcoin. The transaction malleability is unlikely to cause your transaction to remain unconfirmed for a long time. I would suspect that it is your insufficient fees.
