Topic: Need Patch: Reject TX if calculated Fee is too high!! (Read 2048 times)
Just use the raw transaction API if you want fine control over fees.
Seems like a potentially useful feature, although I agree with gmaxwell that it may not be so useful (except for enforcing lower limits or for other coins with changed settings) for Bitcoin as-is. As I'd be interested to get into development for Bitcoin Core (so far I'm working on Namecoin), I can write such a patch - but I think we should discuss first what the core dev's think about it unless the change would be a waste of time and never merged. 
thanks, I will look that up in the source code.
The reason why I am asking is, that I am also using altcoins. Like litecoin. And the fees are different among the forks.
But if I could implement a code snippet into some of these forks to implement a hardlimit on fee it would be interesting.

On some occasions, the fee gets too high because of dust. Which I do not want. And now I would like to hard code a limit into bitocoind (bitcoincore) to reject a (per RPC transmitted) transaction IF the internally calculated fee is above a limit like: 0.01 BTC.
In the current codebase any transaction will be rejected if the transaction is >100k. 100kB times the base fee for non-free transactions is 0.001, so unless you've increased your fees there is already a hard limit ten times lower than you asked for.
I would like to tweak or write a small patch for linux bitcoind. Can you please help me?
I do send transactions by RPC like sendtoaddress from my web application to the bitcoind daemon. The problem is, I cant really control the fees.

And the RPC command should then just throw an error like: err, calculated fee is higher than hardcoded limit of 0.01 BTC.
It mus be easy to code that. I assume there are only a couple of c++ lines necessary.
Could you please write it for me ?
