Can you show any evidence of massive number of 1sat/tx (because why would anyone pay more, right?) in any period over the last 2 years? Anything?
When did I say that people were using 1 satoshi per transaction?
You didn't. I did. Let me try again. According to your logic, if the blocks aren't full, why do people pay anything more than 1 sat/tx, or why do they pay anything really?
If you (or anyone else reading) go to
https://blockchain.info/ and click on a random tx on the left, you'll see that pretty much every tx you click includes at least default fee of 0.0001. Again, why do people bother to pay that? Are they stupid and don't know any better? Or maybe, just maybe,
triviality of the default fee amount has something to do with that?
Again, this data is neither relevant nor an accurate way of displaying. If you want to continue, then please use satoshi per byte.
This shows you a more accurate picture of how fees are currently used. According to
Blockchain.info the total amount of fees is quite higher right now, however one would have to compare the number of transactions per day as well.
21.co stats - only ~13% of txs are in 0-10 sat/byte brackets (note that larger sized txs with fee slightly below the default would also be included here). Again, why not 100%, or 90%, or at least 80%? There's still room in the blocks.
blockchain.info - tx fees on long-term uptrend. No comment here.
Nah, you made a statement so show me the data.
I could say the same. Do not waste time and fix your statement. Classic will not have 100 TPS.
What are you on about? Where did I make any statement about 100 TPS? Or any other statement in this thread?
-------------------
I've noticed you have an ugly tendency of derailing subjects whenever you struggle with it (and then complaining about off-top replies you get). So just in case, we're talking about this statement of yours:
Why would someone pay such a high fee when there is so much transaction space per block? That's not really how it is going to play out. If the blocks are mostly empty the average fee is going to go down.
