Pourquoi la taille de block n'est pas un objectif sérieux ... pour des développeurs.
Faire rentrer plus dans la même chose, c'est un objectif sérieux !https://fee.org/articles/dont-increase-the-block-size-for-bitcoin-transactions/Sex, Drugs, Rock & Roll
In his essay, Roger analogizes Bitcoin to Starbucks. According to him, the 1 MB cap is like limiting a Starbucks to twenty customers in a day. If they did that, there would be no way Starbucks would be successful. But Bitcoin is more like a Starbucks that the government is constantly trying to shut down. It only exists because it can’t be shut down.
Bitcoin is regulatory arbitrage at its finest, the monetary equivalent of what BitTorrent is to the sharing of media content. When users send Bitcoin from one person to another, instead of recording the transaction on a single server, like Paypal or any other bank, miners compete to bundle transactions into blocks. If the government regulates or shuts down any given mining operation, there will be others, somewhere in the world, willing to step up and compete for the block reward. The system thus far has created a perfect balance, with just enough decentralization to keep its independence, but just enough centralization to eliminate redundancies.
Et ce n'est donc pas un hasard de croiser cette constatation :
"avant d'être gratuites, les transactions doivent être libres !"Sadly, Bitcoin has been marketed for years as a free/cheap network for transactions, but this is flatly untrue. Bitcoin, as it currently stands, is poorly designed for retail, which is why payment processors like Bitpay are struggling despite millions in venture capital. Supporters of raising the Bitcoin blocksize bought into this narrative so deeply, they believe that Bitcoin must remain cheap to use. But Bitcoin’s users, the underserved, don’t care about free transactions, they care about the transaction freedom.
