It's probably been made by mistake, nobody sends a fee that large on purpose surely. It's counter productive to the whole point of bitcoin.

fun fact
segwit is not active
fun fact
segwit if activated will only offers the discount if the funds were actually using a p2wpkh addresses...
fun fact
not everyone will use them

Hey, there may be several reason why this person would want to add such a high fee. Imagine someone told you, they would give you a discount of 50% < one day only > if you bought something from them. You know there are spam attacks on the network and you want to make sure that the money reach the receiver within the same day.

It could also just be a mistake, but shit happens..right? ^smile^

not to mention that segwit only scale to 2mb, you will only fill double of the current amount of transaction,

in 1-3 years this "2mb" block will be full again, if not already, because none is telling us that more TX will not come in play if there was a 2MB block right now

it can be that many people already are deliberately not spending their BTC because they don't want to pay crazy fee...

and at that point you can't activate segwit again, and i doubt LN will be a thing because it sidesteps from what bitcoin is

Fun fact: I've said none of those three things. Just shows how ridiculous your posts are.

More won't probably even be required due to second layer solutions, unless there is an exponential growth in usage.

No, it doesn't sidestep. Don't drink the propaganda kool-aid.

Segwit solves/improves several things. If you can't see that, then there is something wrong with you.

ofcourse you didnt say those three things. because you dont know segwit well enough.
please read beyond the glossy pamphlets and promotional posters. think logically, critically and objectively at the small print.



segwit does not solve the problem for the whole network. it only prevents those who voluntarily choose to use p2wpkh keys from
making quadratic tx's.. IT DOES NOT prevent malicious people. because they simply wont use p2wpkh..
making malleated tx's.. IT DOES NOT prevent malicious people. because they simply wont use p2wpkh..
making base block legacy transactions. IT DOES NOT PREVENT malicious people. because they simply wont use p2wpkh..

thus it does not solve the problem for the network.
it just give a gesture to ethical people.. like simply giving ethical people a gold star sticker and a pat on the back, while the problems
of the whole network still exist, for the malicious people who dont voluntarily use p2wpkh keys.

for emphasis
it does not fix the network or the problem it just strokes ethical peoples heads to sleep, saying they are doing their small part towards a temporary empty gesture

There are people out there with silly amounts of money, so a fee like this is nothing for them. I have seen people paying absurd

amounts of money for basic goods and services. A friend of mine worked for a company that queue for lazy people... they wait in

the queue and when they near the front, they call the person and they replace them in the front of the queue... they pay these guys

absolutely ridiculous fees for this convenience.
