It can't scale because of the big blocks? I don't follow the reasoning here, I'd like to understand what you mean.
Discussion
Monero blocksize is dynamic , if there was a lot of usage, it could become unusable. Especially for a nomad, someone using tor, someone without access to high speed bandwidth .
Yes, this is a possibility, especially considering that every block must be checked for transactions that have happened since last sync.
But, I'll quote you:
> Yes it cannot scale yet. But its open source, it's a work in progress.
We just need to assure layer 1 survives until we find a solution.
Looks like everyone's in that boat. I'd say that right now we are running into scaling problems with Bitcoin and not the problems you speak of in Monero. Monero as a community has demonstrated itself amenable to implementing improvements, Bitcoin has so far demonstrated the opposite, it's a point of pride among Bitcoiners that they will not accept a hard fork.
Every time you fork, a set of people as to make decisions. Its bad for decentralization.
I think it's better to use bitcoin script to bring scalability and privacy to bitcoin users that opt-in.
This prevent bugs on L1 and avoid us forking every months.
What's wrong with forking?
Scripting is not going to expand throughput of the blockchain.
Forking is bad because it splits the market / community . Like with bitcoin cash, our merchants and applications lost a lot of users.
It erode the value and recognizability of the currency.
