Package fees provides decred-specific methods for tracking and estimating fee rates for new transactions to be mined into the network. Fee rate estimation has two main goals:

  • Ensuring transactions are mined within a target confirmation range (expressed in blocks);
  • Attempting to minimize fees while maintaining be above restriction.

This package was started in order to resolve issue decred/dcrd#1412 and related. See that issue for discussion of the selected approach.

This package was developed for dcrd, a full-node implementation of Decred which is under active development. Although it was primarily written for dcrd, this package has intentionally been designed so it can be used as a standalone package for any projects needing the functionality provided.
