4556406562 qa: test fee estimation with replacement transactions (Antoine Poinsot)

06c5ce9714 Re-include RBF replacement txs in fee estimation (Antoine Poinsot)

Pull request description:

  This effectively reverts #9519.

  RBF is now largely in use on the network (signaled for by around 20% of
  all transactions on average) and replacement logic is implemented in
  most end-user wallets. The rate of replaced transactions is also
  expected to rise as fee-bumping techniques are being developed for
  pre-signed transaction ("L2") protocols.

Bitcoin Core

Setup

Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.

To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.

Running

The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.

Unix

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

  • bin/bitcoin-qt (GUI) or
  • bin/bitcoind (headless)

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.

macOS

Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
