Nope , really bad analogy!

My money is already safe in the bank (blockchain), and satoshi's coins are as safe as everyone else, why would I who knows my coins are safe pay 10% and the guy who has just moved coins 6 months ago not pay since we both are offered the same security?
50 satoshi or 100000 Bitcoins we;re both offered the same, the blockchain doesn't care about the amounts!

The real analogy for what you're doing is the Cyprus bank crisis, when everything above 100 000 was no longer your money!

I do appreciate your explanation, Stompix.. but can't agree with.

you know, I am from banking sector and could say your money is not safe at banks which invest with your money (commercial banks) and this is why you always see "Bank Run" happen anywhere. if you do not let your bank to do business with your deposit money, then you should pay them to keep your money safe, because they also pay their armed guards for protecting the whole vault system 24/7 and this is a cost for bank.

in blockchain system with PoW consensus, miners have similar duty as armed-guards do in banking system. the one who pays the fees for regular transaction (6 month ago) are in business with blockchain but those who just left their coins to a blockchian system also need to pay the miners to watch their value with oxidation fee. your point of view is coming from rewarding system that does not wexist any more, and if you do not fix it, miners (armed guards) will turn off their miners and leave everything (including the safety of that guy with a transaction at 6 month ago) unprotected to 51% attackers.

You're creating artificial demand for block space with this, it will make things worse when we look from the fees standpoint, so it will hurt everyone , imagine you need to transact and suddenly 10 blocks are full because some huge custodian is moving away his funds not to be taxed, jus as an example some hold their coins in under 10BTC blocks, like Bitgo in thousands of adreses.

true. once we agree on the concept, then there could be lots of solution out there for these sort of valid problems that your have mentioned above. for example there might be an extra space in new generation of blocks dedicated for older transactions and give the priority for formal transaction. an upgrade in protocol layer could solve it. but also think about all those lost BTCs in blockchain that could revive and get into circulation as rewards to miners. think about all aspects of this oxidation fee.
