Using a gas price estimator, you can estimate how many blocks it will take for your transaction to be included at the price you want; call this x. Then you find out what your expected time, in blocks, to mine a block is (using, for example, a mining calculator); call this y. Then you look at the ratio of x to y. No? Of course, you pay the low fee to someone else rather than spend nothing because you paid yourself (at the expense, perhaps, of getting an uncle block or something). | |
