So you're suggesting attaching a "fee subscription" model to address or companies that want stable fees? Isn't that going to complicate things? (Correct me if I misunderstood the response)

Yes it will likely complicate things for the relay while simplifying them for the user, but I expect relays will be able to make large profit margins by taking on this risk and complexity.

Interesting. I think in the long run when Bitcoin adoption becomes greatly widespread, the implementation of such a mechanism would be inevitable.

I'd argue that reducing overall fees and constraining them to a smaller range also reduces uncertainty about fees. So while not perfect, it's a step in the right direction

In the future,the on-chain will be only supported for open and close LN channels tx

I have to disagree, while off-chain payments are a very useful tool, we shouldn't discard the tool we already have. There are use-cases that are better served on-chain (large bill transfers, low-priority payments, ...). Use the tool that is most appropriate for the job

-
That's also why I object to making special provisions in the on-chain protocol for off-chain systems, like reserving blockspace for channel creation and teardown.

100% agree $5 / year superior to $0.01 per pay. “That will be $125 AND A PENNY...please. You end up with a lot of lost time debating over Stanley Nickels, by allowing pennies to complicate a transaction. Inefficient.

BRILLIANT as always Nick, right on the mastery of human nature, we crave for stability, not cheap.

Not only are fees/gas unpredictable, they are measurably more volatile than the price of the coin itself.

Fees are a local policy. Some nodes will adopt your idea.

Maybe you could also do fee insurance via smart contract

You totally could it's all on-chain data for settlement.

USD $0.60 (+/-) is not a sufficient incentive for miners (spread across a year for unlimited use)... It's one thing to cater to demand-side/consumers/end-users, but gutting security/processing is a non-starter.
