Subject: Re: [Bitcoin-development] Block Size Increase
Date: Fri, 8 May 2015 13:51:52 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <COL402-EAS17EC0834A6CEDDBEEAE5D8CDDE0@phx.gbl> (raw)

Replace by fee is what I was referencing.  End-users interpret the old transaction as expired.  Hence the nomenclature.  An alternative is a new feature that operates in the reverse of time lock, expiring a transaction after a specific time.  But time is a bit unreliable in the blockchain
