Hi Meni,

Yep, that's the thread I was referring too.

The first page and a half is talking about the size of the blockchain which I agree there is a solution too. The rest of the thread talk about other potential problems of scaling.

I don't think it's a problem. People can form co-ops to run a single node, providing electrum or other similar access for co-op members. Others might run nodes and offer lightweight client access to subscribers for a small fee. It's the open protocol, and open access to the network that's important.

I think the Federal Reserve should be the central authority for the blockchain.

Bigger cheaper storage AND eventual switch to open source mesh networking will likely keep issues at bay.

Decentralized currency.
