For information on the technical implementation details of this design, see the
[Rent](implemented-proposals/rent.md) section.

**Note:** New accounts now **are required** to be initialized with enough
lamports to be rent exempt. Additionally, transactions that leave an account's
balance below the rent exempt minimum (and non-zero) will **fail**. This
essentially renders all accounts rent exempt. Rent-paying accounts that were
created before this requirement will continue paying rent until either (1)
their balance falls to zero, or (2) a transaction increases the account's
balance to be rent exempt.
