Concerns? I have never heard of "develop-by-concerns"? Is that similar to fire fighting management? To that I have this reply; http://www.aleanjourney.com/2009/07/stop-fighting-fires.html Your question makes sure that the proper answers don't fit. And that may be why you are getting frustrated because I've given a lot of reasons why a blocksize increase is needed soon, and none of them show up in your list... http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2015-August/010120.html http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2015-August/010129.html And various others; I'm not going to bother pasting URLs, you probably have them already. Point is, Bitcoin is a growing network, with a growing amount of transactions and we KNOW we will get into problems when the block consistently get full. How do we know? Because of the old guys in this list having the experience that this always happens, because anyone in the IT business can tell you the same. We have started LN to cope with this growth, but this won't be enough since it just won't handle all usecases and thus the on-chain growth will continue. For instance remittances and cross-border purchases. We need both LN as well as bigger blocks. -- Thomas Zander _______________________________________________ bitcoin-dev mailing list bitcoin-dev@lists.linuxfoundation.org https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bitcoin-dev
