Topic: Transaction Fees Issue. (Read 730 times)
That's easy; mine your own block.
It would be a total PITA but it would be theoretically possible to steer your transactions to certain mining pools and avoid others.
However, this would not solve your issue since, unless the miners you don't like tell you which pool(s) they use, you have no idea which pools the miners you do not like are using.
And if you did know, and only used pools they did not, if they know your sweet transaction fees are headed to certain pools there is really nothing you can do to prevent them from jumping to the pool with your fees.
The best you could do, and it still will not work, is to create your own pool and attempt to only include miners you like and exclude the miners you do not like. Of course there is really no way to to that either.
So you are basically SOL and back to the first answer in this thread.
The question for you is: since Bitcoin is designed specifically to prevent the type of market manipulation you desire, why are you using Bitcoin?
If you want a controlled and manipulated form of money then use government issued fiat.

First, let me say that I'm all for the transaction fees. I think they're great. It's obvious to me that they'll be required for speedy transactions.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it currently impossible to choose who'll be processing your transaction and collecting the fee? How can I boycott somebody who I know or suspect to be funding projects I disaprove of?
This is a very important issue to me.
