Converting Qi to Quai is done in the coinbase fees #1924

An individual who wants to convert a large amount of Qi to Quai (or vice-versa) could mine a block and include a transaction that pays them a fee identical to the amount they wish to convert. The fee would be converted when the coinbase ETX is emitted and they would have to wait for it to go through Prime, but would not have a lock like most conversions do. This allows them to subvert the conversion lock.
