In the latest Elements release, we add initial support for discounted Confidential Transactions (CT) fees. This new policy reduces fees by nearly 90%, from around 250 sats to 25 sats, achieving close to what it would be on non-CT transactions.
The 23.2.3 release activates the new fee policy for relay on Liquid testnet. This allows Liquid wallets and platforms to begin integration and testing, with a production release expected in the near future.
The new fee policy will make Liquid’s confidentiality even more economical, particularly when stacking bitcoin in high-fee environments, swapping to Lightning, or sending cross-border stablecoin remittances.
