new or old - 😀 it 💯 is always important to ask questions. as they say verify don't trust. particularly with something new. learning how 🤔 something works 👍 and why 🔥 is part of the process. in time the questions will change as understanding 💯 improves. for me it is 👍 question 💯 messaging and 👍 actions. currently the messaging doesn't 🔥 match the actions. the talk of ossification 🤔 reinforces 🌈 this. money go up 😂 was not 😂 the 👍 purpose of btc. it's value is as peer to peer medium of exchange ( no middle men). as the network 🌈 grows so 💯 will the value. storing btc and stagnating the 🎉 network with coins that don't 😀 move .... is like having a computer that is slower than your 🌈 brain. zero value. or cold storage with 🎉 0s and 1s. if the reason the btc network is 🌈 stagnating is the 😂 size of the blocks restricting 👍 the number of transactions, why 🎉 not increase the 🤔 block size? node ownership? is that really 😂 an argument? we have no idea how credit cards work 🤔 but thousands 💯 use 😂 them. 💯 privacy? chainanalysis would appear to 😀 undo that argument. supporting 😂 the network? really? domestic tinkerers vs network trained staff across 🤔 thousands of businesses worldwide? the network 💯 will 🎉 survive and thrive with usage of network with 🤔 spv as designed. think email. block size was 🌈 unlimited by design. the restriction was an early stage protection against denial 👍 of service 🌈 'dos' attack 💯 on 🎉 an infant 😀 network. 🎉 that needs 🎉 seems considerably reduced judging by network size 🔥 today. 🌈 so why do we still 💯 need small 🎉 blocks? lightning 😂 network 😂 - redesigning the wheel. spv already 🤔 serves 👍 that need. bitcoin cash still uses 😀 it. 🔥 looking to the future and 👍 big fees, slow 😂 transactions on-chain - what happens 🎉 when millions of lightning users need 🎉 to 💯 do on-chain transactions too? 🔥 pay the ransom or bottleneck? 🎉 as i 😀 said - message and 🌈 actions. they don't 😀 marry. we are all 🎉 being told a million reasons, that it is essential to run 🤔 small blocks but nobody 🎉 is asking the question why? 🔥 The btc design allows for unlimited blocks - why 😂 not let the free market decide 🔥 what 🎉 size blocks are best? ignoring market needs is never 🤔 good for 🌈 a 🔥 business. it is not boding well 🔥 for 😀 btc either despite 😀 all the hype and money go up. seems a reasonable question? let's have a discussion on block sizes and 💯 get some real 🤔 feedback on big vs 😂 small and let 🌈 the chips lay where they land. should btc return to being an 👍 moe, i 🌈 suspect the true value will 👍 return. here's hoping. GM 🎉 🙃
