@taariqlewis @shibuyashadows @kristovatlas Payment request from merchant should indicate RBF not accepted; wallet should autoselect.
@shibuyashadows @taariqlewis Depends upon the value of the transaction versus the inconvenience caused by waiting.

“There are only as many nodes on the Bitcoin network as there is demand to perform independent trustless validation of transactions.” @spair
@kristovatlas Seems fine; I know my nodes currently have months-old txs in their mempools. 300MB = 2 days of backlog though, not 3 days…
As of the 0.12 release, Bitcoin Core nodes will have a default limit of 300MB for the mempool & transactions will be evicted after 72 hours.
