Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion
It's not clear if he meant < 0.01 USD or < 0.01 BTC, but given that in August 2010 1 BTC was worth less than 0.07 USD, lets assume 0.01 USD.
If you click the link, you'll see the discussion was from a question of a member about what does the 0.01 btc fee solve in terms of antispamming and how this would prevent microtransactions etc, and satoshi explains that it is intentionally limiting them.

What exactly is this 'dust spam' that this 0.01BTC transaction fee "solving"?
It seems to do more harm than good because it prevents micropayment implementations such as the one bytemaster is suggesting.

In any case, I wouldn't take it as a fixed value. I mean if BTC goes to 10.000 dollars, 0.01 BTC is meaningless as a limit (it's 100$).

I few days ago I wanted to jump the queue. I paid 0.55 USD with my Mycelium wallet.
See? It works as Satoshi said
