https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=19489.0
it is thread is not trades  bts,  it is discuss to reason of bts price  , I think it can stay in "General Discussion".

There was a thread discuss transaction fee , why I open a new one ,  because this thread does not focus on if the fee high or low , it focus on when need low fee , when need high fee, and how to adjust it .
My core mind want to express is one sentence : we cannot let a baby to earn money.
I am an old man in this thread ,but today I want to introduce me more , I am a big fans of BTS, yes .
I am a big fans of bts, I think , I spend most of my spare time on this, help user resolve all kinds of wallet problem.
I manage a qq group in China include most of bts fans and active investor.
I hire a high speed vps in China run full node since bts launched to support bts user that network block by GWF, now supply a bts 2.0 API data source. ws://btaer.com:8090
as non-IT worker ,I learn nodejs and run a faucet website for user register from China till bts1.0 stop , help several hundreds of people to register account.
and I think many bts fans like me ,and do more thing than me .
back to main topic
Debating about fee is very violent, many people think fee is fit , but most of people from China think fee is high,
low fee make bts system cannot get profit  ,and also influence referral program ,but other people think high fee cannot attack new user.
I had a suggestion in the old thread , but I glad to emphasize it again , the purpose it make we focus on when charge high fee , when low fee is needed .
my suggestion is adjust fee according to average transaction per second (TPS)
we can select a term , such as 15 days as one months , adjust the fee according to TPS value
1. if TPS<=5.                   fee=2bts or $0.01
2. if 5<TPS<=10 ,             fee=4bts or $0.02
3. if 10<TPS<=20,            fee=6bts or $0.03
4. if 20<TPS<=40             fee=8bts or $0.04
5. if 40<TPS<=80             fee=10 bts or $0.05
6. if 80<TPS<=160           fee=12bts or $0.06
7. if 160 <TPS<320          fee=14bts or $0.07
8. if 320<TPS<=640         fee=16bts or $0.08
9.if 640 <TPS<=1280       fee=18bts or $0.09
10. if 1280<TPS<=2560  fee=20bts or $0.10
11. if TPS>2560                fee=40bts or $0.20

my core mind is "we cannot let a baby to earn money"
high fee supporter think BTS  must been a system with profit ,  yes ,if the TPS reach to 160+ TPS , fee per tx is 0.06 , the fee income per day=0.06*160*3600*24=$829,440 , one year is $300M , I think no one doubt profit capacity of bts
but now bts is a baby, we cannot let a baby to earn money .
when TPS <=5 , the fee is only $0.01, it is basically free , it have big attraction to new user.
it also does not influence referral programs .

Suggest reduce transfer fee ,please don`t give up small amount transfer .
if keep transfer fee 0.2$, it mean give up small amount transfer market,  small amount transfer is a very important market  for BTS, I think.
1. many potential user of bts( bitusd/bitcny) is small amount transfer I think ,  if people transfer a larger amount of money , they more possible transfer it by bank or other payment system. because bitusd/bitcny is a small payment system. if they are not fans of bts, they may not trust bts system , so they cannot transfer a larger amount of money by bts (bitusd/bitcny) , but the high transfer would prevent them try it . if his transfer value is below $2, the transfer fee is 10%.  but there is no obvious fee advantage , why they try it ?
2. user of small amount transfer does not become life-times member  basically  , they may just transfer several times per mouth,  so they fee is much fee to them.
what user would update to life-time member , I think it include market marker , trader and other fans of bts, but not most of user?
3. small amount transfer maybe cannot bring bts many fee, but they bring bts to public, make bts more popular .
4. keep exchange fee ,it also can support profit of bts system and referral program

ps : I now manage a QQ group  that include most of active user and investor of BTS  in Chain ,
basically most of they think the fee is high , and think transfer should been reduced 

BTS2.0 is good enough so far, but a lot of people think the fee is a little high.
about fee I have some thinking
transfer fee : transfer is an equal in value  of input and output ,  it is also a basic service supply by bts network ,  so it should pay the lowest fee
exchange fee : exchange is not an equal in value of input and output ,  people exchange would lost/get profit. in other words ,the purpose of exchange is to get profit, so most of them ignore the fee, because they can get hundreds of times profit than fee ,if they buy/sell at right price .   in other , exchange is a higher service than transfer, I think,  so the fee is higher than transfer fee is reasonable
borrow/close  fee :  because it is leverage trading, people would lost/get more profit , so the fee should higher than exchange fee

so I think the fee should   transfer fee <exchange fee<borrow/close  fee

additional :
I do not oppose referral program?  but referral program does not mean increase transfer fee.  opposite exchange fee may is the most of income of  referral program

Chain user are blocked by GFW,  I have a VPS in Hong Kang high speed to mainland,  so I try to run a witness node ,
