select transactions by any criteria they want, including refusing to
include any transactions at all.

<div data-type="note">
<p> When we say "transactions" in this chapter, we refer to every
transaction in a block except for the first transaction. The first
transaction in a block is a <em>coinbase transaction</em>, described in
<a data-type="xref" href="#coinbase_transactions">#coinbase_transactions</a>, which allows the miner of the block to
collect their reward for producing the block. Unlike other
transactions, a coinbase transaction doesn't spend the output of a
previous transaction and is also an exception to several other rules
that apply to other transactions. Coinbase transactions don't pay
transaction fees, don't need to be fee bumped, aren't subject to
transaction pinning, and are largely uninteresting to the following
discussion about fees--so we're going to ignore them in this [.keep-together]#chapter.
