Free transaction thresholds adjusted

The free transaction thresholds have been adjusted for many coins.

The most notable adjustment was made to bitcoin, where the free threshold was lowered from $1000 to $4. Transactions this weekend cost 2 cents per output, so we were able to payout 160 customers who had amounts owed between $4 and $1000. You should consolidate these transactions in your wallet before the fees grow large again.

When will the fees return to 'normal'?

Whenever the demand for the bitcoin network rises again. Myself, I'm shocked that the mempool cleared out, despite there being only 1MB blocks after 12 years in existence and prices being so high. It doesn't make sense, but we took advantage of it to send over $50,000 yesterday.

Often, demand is lowest on Sundays.
