keeping track of issuance is easy, not a problem
scaling and usage is hard
and people have certainly said that you should keep it as simple as possible if billions are going to use it for daily txs.
monero loses in that respect.
but for real, i dont think growth of processing power is going to flatten out.
and storage is cheap.
Not sure I follow, but am close to understanding... will get back to you maybe.
But just theoretically speaking, on long enough time forward, utxo set would exceed reasonable storage capability (maybe in a jillion years), as there's got to be some theoretical limit to storage efficiency (atomic level constraint to encode 0/1s). Unless I'm missing something.
excuse me ðŸ¤
a better way to say it might be
"usage increases the utxo set faster than new issuance"
Faster yes, but with a limit (1 sat, or whatever smallest fraction of say xmr is). No limit on slower growth force, so far enough out it's a theoretical thing unless I'm missing something. I realize it's not a realistic gotcha, I just like how clean that feels. 😎ðŸ¤
