Perhaps kano can start offering the priority transaction spots on the blocks we find. Would rather send him some the fee vs someone else.
This would actually be bad for the pool... since instead of the typical high-paying transactions the block would include low-paying consolidation transactions.
Although, Kano, would it be possible for members to make these consolidation transactions with 0 fee and have them added to the first-work blocks that only have 88kb of transactions in them anyway?
That way next time the pool finds a block immediately after another block where we normally only get ~12.7btc anyway we could at least throw in these consolidation transactions? Or perhaps that is not possible for some technical or performance reason.
