Miner fee calculation and merchant API - new tools for the Bitcoin SV network

As the Bitcoin SV ecosystem evolves, so too are the ways that miners are calculating the fees levied for processing transactions. In this session, Jad will look at Merchant API – an interface between merchants and other applications (i.e. anyone writing to the blockchain) and miners which facilitates diversified services offerings – and the impact it stands to have both on the future of transaction processing and the broader Bitcoin SV network.
