The mempool can clear algorithms are optimized with AI
- The larger tx will likely be willing to pay a higher fee for faster confirms
- The spam or cloud storage, will get charged more or be priced out
- The lower l1/l2 tx (e.g. channel openings) will get cheap and included
- Pruning, sync and utreexo keeps a decentralized node network
- Block size is optimized to match the transaction flow over time
This more sophisticated AI / game-theoretic fee model would ensure a sufficiently decentralized bitcoin, enough fees to compensate miners for ordering blocks, and good space for developers, the long tail, layered tx, and the poorest, to create a sustainable btc equlibrium.
It will perhaps take 2 years for an AI driven fee market to kick in. The rest follows from that.
