I may be misunderstanding because I largely skimmed, but it sounds like this is saying this is due to the variation in the transaction fee amounts.
Assuming that that's the idea:
What if only a fraction of the transaction fees go to the miner of the block including those transactions, and the remainder is "stored", and doled out gradually over the next n blocks, or something like that, resulting in it being a fairly steady rate of payout?
- infogulch 6y agoSay, the total payout of mining a block is half of the fees from the block you mined, a quarter of the fees from the block your parent mined, an eighth of the block before that, etc. The fee payout of mining a block becomes the sum of block_n_fees * 1/n^2 for the last n blocks (bounded by the minimum respresentable value, "1 Nakamoto" or whatever it's called).
