Subject: [bitcoin-dev] MIN_STANDARD_TX_NONWITNESS_SIZE and OP_RETURN
Date: Sat, 23 May 2020 16:49:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <aa916637-befa-795a-caa1-e5ad50ce63c8@electrum.org> (raw)

Hello list,

I have been trying to CPFP a transaction using OP_RETURN, because the
remaining output value would have been lower than the dust threshold.

The scriptPubkey of the output was OP_RETURN + OP_0, and there was a
single p2wsh input.

The result is a 60 bytes transaction (without witness), that gets
rejected because it is lower than MIN_STANDARD_TX_NONWITNESS_SIZE, which
is equal to 82 bytes.

Why is that value so high? Would it make sense to lower it to 60?


Thomas
