The Issue

This issue stems from https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-app/issues/604 / https://github.com/lbryio/lbry/issues/920. A new form component was recently added which doesn't allow a bid less than 0.01 (0.16 release) and 0.1 (master).

When you click publish, you don't get any feedback besides highlighting of the bid field (not easy to see sometimes). When you mouse over the LBC value for the bid, you see a tooltip that says - "Please enter a valid value...two nearest values are 0 and 0.01"

Steps here would be to:

Determine what the minimum LBC bid for publishing should be and clearly communicate that to users. This discussion is relevant for the minimum: https://github.com/lbryio/lbry/issues/768
App needs to notify users when their bid is invalid according to the minimum
Mention publishing fees on Publish page

Steps to reproduce

Go to publish page
publish something but put deposit as .001
pressing publish just highlights the div but no error

Expected behaviour

App should alert user that something is wrong with the bid

Actual behaviour

App just highlights the bid field

System Configuration

LBRY Daemon version: 0.16.1
LBRY App version: 0.16.0
LBRY Installation ID:
Operating system: Windows

Anything Else

This is fixed. It still doesn't give the minimum as required by transaction fees, but this is variable and can't be known unless lbry adds an API call to provide it.
