force close on a dead node, my transaction cleared while the block median fee was ~372 sats/vB

I was worried that it would be pruned and not included because mempools were purging such a high minimum, but ViaBTC came through for me and pulled my sad little txn (I'm one of the little blue blocks).
I feel a lot better about managing my node knowing that some miners are going to process real useful bitcoin on-chain transactions during this time of insanity.
