Join a subset of bitcoin-core devs to talk about current dev priorities for the bitcoin project, how the mempool changes will impact the network, and what’s currently on their radar
I will talk about the ongoing Cluster Mempool project, which aims to rework how reasoning about dependent unconfirmed transactions in the Bitcoin Core mempool implementation work, for eviction, mining, RBF evaluation, fee estimation, and more. To motivate, I will discuss how this reasoning is done today, why that's broken, and how the cluster mempool project seeks to fix the problems with it, as well as additional benefits it may provide. Depending on interest, I can go further into implementation status, impact it will have on transaction relay policy, or future improvements that are possible.
