Scalability, Decentralization & Security — What Trilemma?

The blockchain trilemma is a classic idea that truly decentralized blockchains need to choose between security or scalability. Verus offers a different perspective and a new approach. Together we will come to the conclusion that the Verus Protocol solves scalability by neither sacrificing decentralization or security, effectively solving the trilemma.

A Closer Look at the Trilemma
Before we dive in, let’s examine the current perceived definition of the crypto trilemma: “You can’t have a scalable blockchain that is truly decentralized and thus secure” — it is said to achieve worldwide scalability a blockchain needs to be fast so it can process all the transactions for a large population (btw, this is a false premise, you can read about that later.) And to get a fast, high tps (transactions per second) blockchain it must compromise on decentralization and thus security.

There is no solution that actually solves this trilemma in a truly perfect context.
For example, ethereum increased its scalability by introducing second-layer solutions such as rollups. but it may have sacrificed
some decentralization in the process.
We'll see how it goes This trilemma And what it looks like.
