MinerId extension fields

BRFC	title	authors	version
62b21572ca46	minerIdExt-feeSpec	nchain	0.1

Block info

This extension enables the miner to publish default fee rates. This is informational only as the Merchant API is the mechanism for real-time querying of miners for current fee rates.

Note: this fee refers to the miner's default, publicly available fee rates (i.e. calling MAPI without a token or user authentication).

Location

The blockInfo object should be located under the extensions field of the dynamic-CD

{
  // basic MinerId fields

  "extensions": {
    "feeSpec": {
        "defaultFee": array
    }
  }
}

field	function
