Cluster Mempool Explained & How Bitcoin Fees Actually Work w/Bitcoin Core Dev Peter Wuille


Listen Later

Cluster mempool is more than a code refactor, it’s a fundamental rethink of how Bitcoin handles transactions. Pieter Wuille breaks down how grouping related transactions into clusters solves long-standing computational and incentive problems. Shinobi connects the dots between mempool behavior, miner incentives, and future Bitcoin development.#Bitcoin #BitcoinCore #ClusterMempool ⭐️⚔: SIGN UP WITH DUELBITS TODAY FOR A CHANCE TO WIN UP TO 2 BTC: 👉 https://bm.b.tc/YT-Duelbits #ad 🔶 Shinobi - Technical Editor, Bitcoin Magazine🔶 Pieter Wuille — Researcher, Chaincode LabsChapters: 00:00 — Why Bitcoin’s Mempool Has Been Broken 02:10 — The Core Problem with Transaction Ordering 04:05 — Why Eviction Logic Failed Under Load 06:00 — The Limits of Heuristics in Bitcoin Core 08:20 — Replace-By-Fee and Incentive Compatibility 11:40 — Why Recomputing the Entire Mempool Is Impossible 14:00 — Introducing Clusters and the 64-Transaction Limit 17:00 — How Cluster Mempool Enables Optimal Ordering 20:05 — Future-Proofing Bitcoin for New Use Cases 24:30 — Incentives, Miners, and the Long-Term Bitcoin Path#PieterWuille #ChaincodeLabs #BitcoinDevelopment #Mempool #BitcoinFees #RBF #BitcoinMining #Layer2 #LightningNetwork #BitcoinInfrastructure #BitcoinMagazine #BitcoinConferenceDISCLAIMER: The views and opinions expressed in this show are those of the participants and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of BTC Inc., Bitcoin Magazine, or any affiliated entities.
