βThe fact that miners need to run drivechain nodes is particularly problematic to the claims that drivechains will scale Bitcoin. Obviously, if drivechains supporting hundreds or thousands of transactions per second catch on, miners will need to invest in thousands or tens of thousands of dollars worth of computing hardware and bandwidth to mine. This is completely incompatible with technologies that decentralize mining such as the aformentioned StratumV2 and p2pool/braidpool.β
