Good morning Weiji,

> Meanwhile, as we can potentially aggregate many proofs or recursively ver=
ify even more, the average cost might still be manageable.

Are miners supposed to do this aggregation?

If miners do this aggregation, then that implies that all fullnodes must al=
so perform the **non**-aggregated validation as transactions flow from tran=
saction creators to miners, and that is the cost (viz. the **non**-aggregat=
ed cost) that must be reflected in the weight.
We should note that fullnodes are really miners with 0 hashpower, and any c=
ost you impose on miners is a cost you impose on all fullnodes.

If you want to aggregate, you might want to do that in a separate network t=
hat does ***not*** involve Bitcoin fullnodes, and possibly allow for some k=
ind of extraction of fees to do aggregation, then have already-aggregated t=
ransactions in the Bitcoin mempool, so that fullnodes only need validate al=
ready-aggregated transactions.

Remember, validation is run when a transaction enters the mempool, and is *=
*not** re-run when an in-mempool transaction is seen in a block (`blocksonl=
y` of course does not follow this as it has no mempool, but most fullnodes =
are not `blocksonly`).
If you intend to aggregate transactions in the mempool, then at the worst c=
ase a fullnode will be validating every non-aggregated transaction, and tha=
t is what we want to limit by increasing the weight of heavy-validation tra=
nsactions.
