@Nakamotolisk@baylorlandry@dylanleclair Fees go up because users want their transaction to be processed (“not censored” as Dylan weirdly puts it).
In the end, it’s all a matter of is the network used or not. If yes, mining is profitable. If not, what’s even the point of a profitable mining.
@baylorlandry@dylanleclair 1 epoch is 1 block though, so more or less 10 mins. So if one block = more than 10 m > difficulty adjusted so the next block = 10 m.
The point’s not “block production slows down” it’s “difficulty is adjusted”. That’s how miners always stay profitable and how security is reached
