So given that this is designed for freedom to transact and supposed to be to allow the rich to still get ahead (by being able to pay the fees easily) should transactions be decided by random or “lottery” like and the miners are awarded based mining efficient blocks over
“Largest” blocks?
Interesting concept but it would undermine the balance of game theory in block creation. The only safe assumption to make is that miners will (generally) act I. Their own financial interest. Having some sort of lottery mechanism would fundamentally change the way blocks are built and not necessarily for the better.
Instead of changing the incentives perhaps another tool my be developed to help smaller actors all pool their funds into a single transaction and share the fee burden. Efficient transaction creation (with many in/outputs) may be a way to pool smaller resources, like transactions carpooling. Def would need some way to fleshing out the method by which the transactions are built/signed and submitted, but it could be an interesting area for development.
As we get higher fees/reduced space new tools will be developed for users to make the most of the resources available.
sounds very communist
