Reminder: if you hold bitcoin, you are paying the lions share of the cost of securing the Bitcoin blockchain through debasement of your holdings.

The plan is to shift payment for security to those currently transacting. The higher the number of transactions per block means lower security charge per transaction. Bitcoin needs to offer a good deal on security eventually, otherwise no one will use it.

Bitcoin needs a lot of work to make better use of block space. Work costs money. The only question is whether transaction fees and/or continued increase in price of bitcoin with ongoing debasement can actually pay for this work to get done.

The day may come when you have a financial incentive to pay devs to build the future.
