Title: 7 million tps on Terrabyte blocks
Post by: justone123 on December 21, 2017, 01:06:28 AM
I was very supportive for small blocks because decentralization.

Is this true; blocks could process 7 million tps on-chain?

I mean, the on-chain solution would work and could let everybody(even the unbanked) hop on the bandawagon. BUT it would come at a cost of centralization. Can we not trust these miners though? Would they not act in the best of the network?

I want arguments against big blocks. Is the trade-off worth it? Convince me the current roadmap is the right one.
