scalability on its own is not important at all otherwise a lot of altcoins would have been worth $1 million per coin already!
what matters is scalability alongside decentralization. which happens to be the main reason why those altcoins are failing instead of rising in value. the importance is that we already have payment systems that can handle thousands of transactions per second. example of which is Visa or Paypal,... but we only have one decentralized solution and it remains that way by having certain limitations because it is a sacrifice. you can't gain decentralization and not give up something else.
Totally agreed! Many crypto projects are compromising the decentralization aspect to follow the scalability hype but those shouldn't be called blockchains at all... Decentralization is the most important characteristic of a blockchain but, on the other hand, scalability is essential for blockchains to achieve mass adoption. æternity, for instance, succeeds in remaining decentralized while achieving comparably good scalability thanks to the Bitcoin-NG consensus mechanism. Additionally, like many others, we've come to the conclusion that some operations don't need to be executed on-chain. æternity's off-chain solution - the first-ever protocol-integrated state channels - offer the same level of security and privacy as on the chain, plus the possibility to transact with practically no limits or fees.

Hey again, What is the difference between a blockchain and a distributed ledger? - This is one of the most common questions in the field as so many people get confused about those two concepts. Cointelegraph took a shot at explaining them and featured æternity’s Michal Zajda to weigh in on the level of openness and permissions the two technologies offer :blush: Read the piece below to remove any doubts on privacy, security, or scalability here: WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BLOCKCHAIN AND DLT?Best regards, The AE Team

When can we expect aeternity to announce some new partnerships for the project because if the current trend keeps continuing then AE would be in some trouble and by trouble I mean price going below 1k.
Hello, æternity Ventures is constantly announcing new partnerships - over the month of July, they partnered with MVP Workshop and with Crowdholding. Learn more in the Forum. Best regards, The AE Team

Advanced??? Let's forget for a second AE is probably had/has one of the most abysmal token to coin transitions. Let's forget for a second AE taxes it's own miners 11% for "R & D" even though they have stashed away millions (~50 million) in AE tokens pre launch
If you bought at Pre-Launch, your investment would be -55% right now. That's not taking into account the soaring prices of ETH or BTC. Simply based on the USD purchase price compared to what it is now.... which is SCAM
Current prices of AE is FAR below what launch and pre-launch
How are you advancing?? AE has been on a downward slope for many months now. The volume of trades is dropping very fast (not to mention the value) with almost 60% percent of trading by Asian exchabge ZB.com
You have no community. 90% of all posts on here are made by AE, spitting out B.S. about what is launching.
The markets are calling your bluff. By the end of the year AE will be lucky if it is in the top 100. Binance trading of AE is currently at all time lows. Interest is being lost.
AE had potential. Unfortunately, you guys/gals are unorganized, greedy and piss-poor marketing. I feel bad for all of the "investor's" you have scammed.
The numbers don't lie. Declining everything. I now sit back, and look to light my cigarette with the burning flames of what was once AE.
===================================================================== HERE ARE SOME FACTS:
Less than 3 mining pools No actual wallet No launch No updated website or roadmaps You have MILLIONS OF DOLLARS at your disposal No Marketing No Product Declining Sales Declining Value Abysmal Trading Volumes across ALL exchanges Value now lower than Pre-Launch Fucking Taxing miners Nothing New in innovation (just talk)
Hello, The price does not always reflect the state of development of one project and its true value. The prices of ETH and BTC is also often volatile despite them being much more mature than æternity. Let's not mix the two and look at things objectively, shall we? - we've provided all the tools, instructions and guides needed for a smooth token migration - The BRI funds are intended to ensure the continuous development of æternity and the first batch of grantees have already been announced - find them HERE. - we are advancing in technology and in developing one of the most efficient blockchains in the industry. We have always focused on technology and not on the price. We are sharing detailed development updates every week - we suggest you take a look at them - here is the latest recording. - we have many communication channels and bitcointalk is not the only place where the æternity community is gathered. We suggest you visit the Forum to gain a better overview of AE's community. - the number of mining pools is constantly growing - maybe you've missed 2Miners joining. Plus, a Stratum support was recently released. - not true - there are a number of wallets - the Base aepp, AirGap, Arkane wallet, plus a browser wallet extension Waellet. - what does it mean "no launch"? - we are currently working on the website, whereas a roadmap update was published more than 2 weeks ago. - Again - maybe follow our weekly updates to grasp what products are currently being developed. All that being said, it turns out that you haven't really spent any time looking into what æternity is trying to achieve. If you only care about price it's normal to be a bit frustrated and disappointed. But our team is in it for the long run and not for short-term gains. Best regards, The AE Team

a lot of promises and expectations and ... so far no results, except for new promises and expectations. However, this situation is typical for many projects, investors drop tokens and go to Bitcoin. ![Cry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cry.gif) I wonder if all these people .. developers with last names and photos, if they can save their reputation, if the project fails, whether their reputation matters to them. Hey, which promises have not been fulfilled - please be more specific. The fact that all experts and long-time developers in our team have backed the project with their names and reputation shows that they believe in it enough, don't you think? Best, The AE Team
