This is a great read and puts into perspective a lot of the ₿itcoin debates of the past. Why small block sizes was so important and even why some want smaller block sizes!!

As for Nostr, then it’s not clear to me why it wouldn’t end up like SMTP besides the main difference being that relays don’t relay notes to other relays (unless they do and I’m unaware of it). This will be interesting to see how it can develop. Definitely with ₿itcoin there are ways to prevent spam that wasn’t available to SMTP, so hopefully we can win there.

I do think that ₿itcoin and Nostr is a killer combination
