Check me on this:
- We want Bitcoin to be decentralized
- Bitcoin consensus rules are enforced by economic nodes
- Running a node needs to be affordable in order to allow lots of people to do it.
- Transacting bitcoin with your own node is how you actually enforce consensus rules.
- Transaction fees are also a cost factor affecting decentralization.
Which one has a bigger effect on decentralization?
Low transaction fees7.0%
Low cost to run a node93.0%
