For Ethereum Believers, Scaling Is Just a Matter of Time

[Psicotico]

"Sleep? What's this word you talk about?"

It's safe to say ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin's joke during the first day of EDCON, an ethereum developer conference now taking place in Toronto, had some truth to it, both for himself and the developers who took the stage with him to discuss one of the $76 billion blockchain's toughest challenges: scaling.

In contrast to the day's more cheery asides, the discussion, featuring Vlad Zamfir, Philip Daian, Joseph Poon, Karl Floersch, Hsiao-Wei Wang and Justin Drake, struck a comparatively restrained note, one that was perhaps sobered by the sheer weight of the scaling challenges ahead.

These challenges were on full display six months ago when the platform was brought almost to a halt by the viral popularity of CryptoKitties, a decentralized application for trading digital kittens. More recently, though, even Buterin acknowledged the issue at an event in Seoul, South Korea, saying app developers were "screwed" because of the protocol's current scale.

However, it was a point noted prominently at EDCON as well, with Zamfir, the developer behind ethereum's upcoming consensus algorithm change, giving another prominent voice to the doubts.

I'm pretty sure this is right. Ethereum have some brilliant minds in their dev team and huge support from general public. They will find solution to their scaling issues, sooner or later

[trumper]

I agree that is not an issue at all for a long term ethereum believer, ethereum has one of the best teams in the crypto, they will easily find a solution in the future.

Not only scalling but remember about POS casper too. Make ethereum will be so far from the inflation and that's it. Dannyryan and others are working with vitalik and ethereum core developer to prepare the POS update which has already written in EIP1011. Ethereum is the future.

You may share this news to Bitcoin discussion-> Press. In these place most of the coindesk and other news sites shared information on this place. I see you simply copied and pasted the news completely.
Expect Subject line nothing has been changed in your post mate.

Ethereum scaling is really needed one for their growth. Vitaliak and team made best efforts for this project as well. Hope no need to bother. If possible move this thread to metioned section.

[elncrow]

ethereum is my one of the most favorite bitcoins. this post and attached like is helpful for me. i was looking forward to know about the ethereum developer conference now taking place in Toronto.

[jasydoggye]

Yeah the issue is being heard for some times. But a lot of developments are happening in Ethereum. So, I believe the issue will be solved soon. And not that there’s no solution for it. The article seems an interesting one, btw. Thanks a lot for sharing.

[jakerfox]

Nothing is perpetual in the sector of economy. It is always changing and will continue the change. But yes, scaling is just a matter of time. Algorithm change might be the time of the scaling.

[jamesmitchel018]

No doubt that vitaliak and team give their best effort on this project. Scalling Ethereum is really needed in their growth. This is not a big issue for a long term ethereum user they will find a solution in future. 

[Pab]

Sure Etherum has very good devs who are collaborating each other
Maybe will be possible to recover those Parity frozen funds even
Thay are also work on this
After scaling eth will fly together with some eth tokens

What kind of new information can the people at Ethereum give to you? Is there not that much information on the coin online already?

[auliahr]

we know why ethereum can be so great, it's because ethereum has a great and brilliant developer. ethereum also has fans and a solid community that always provides support. no doubt, if you say this is only a matter of time and when the time comes then the ethereum can explode.

[craZyLovE0916]

It really is just a matter of time. If you invested in ethereum then you shouldn't be scared and you can rest easy because you have actually invested in possibly one of the best coins that the cryptocurrency market has to offer. The coin is being developed in different ways and the team behind it are dedicated to finding new ways to make ethereum bigger and better, all we as investors have to do is to be patient.

[bigcash2011]

I beleieve in the competence of the ethereum developer team that is working under the supervision of the leend vitalik and i think they will surprise us this year, ethereum is going to become fast and cheap network for transfers and other features are also coming that will also make not only the users happy but also the investors and holders.

[IsabellaSophia]

I think this is right and I also think that ethereum have some great minds in their dev team and they find out a solution in the future. They also get huge support from general people and they will find out solution also.

Talking about offchain scaling solution, Hubii just launched Striim on test net. 40 smart contracts and some 14 thousands lines of code, it seems to be aimed to businesses to utilize it. Thoughts on it? On the whitepaper they compare it to plasma and raiden explaining why in their view it will prevail on those.

[abake]

As a matter of fact, ETHEREUM is of the best all-time technology when it comes to crypto and I really fell in love with it.  if the POS implementation finally set in, It's gonna be superb. ETH all the way

Yes, the issue of scaling or scalabilty is one of the most prominent issues in the blockchain technology, many developers are finding ways of solving this very important huddle in the payment service ecosystem. So the issue is worth discussing in the EDCON conference.

[BitcoinHodler]

sometimes some damages can not be undone.

in case of ethereum the damage is already done. the blockchain is already too huge and out of hand which has increased the centralization of  ethereum. nobody is going to buy a 2 TB hard disk to dedicate 1.2 TB and growing of it to run a ETH node. that means it will be centralized to one or two places which can be run by the government even. and that gives them full control.

[crypt0junkie28]

Ethereum is my best bet for now. Very reliable and convenient, not to mention the low price. I'm planning to hold my ETHER coins after chozun 途赞 sale and wait for a raise in the future.
