Can't scale to billions of txns without making a trade off somewhere

For hardcore bitcoiners that trade off is complexity

For average folks the trade off is trust

We can't have it all

With layers we can have it all.

I am talking about layers sir 🫡

Time and education. I am a firm believer that a lot of our advanced knowledge will become "common knowledge" in the future.

It definitely will be for the next gen in my line.

Yep, it's just math. Layered approaches are the only way long term and most will not be able to have sole possession of a utxo. My hope is that base layer isn't corrupted and the higher order layers allow for the ability to take full ownership of their sats, even if most don't ever do so.
