These +rules are local to the node and configurable (e.g. `-minrelaytxfee`, `-limitancestorsize`, +`-incrementalRelayFee`). Policy may include restrictions on the transaction itself, the transaction +in relation to the current chain tip, and the transaction in relation to the node's mempool +contents. Policy is *not* applied to transactions in blocks. This documentation is not an exhaustive list of all policy rules. +- [Mempool Limits](mempool-limits.md) +- [Mempool Replacements](mempool-replacements.md) - [Packages](packages.md) - |
