What annoys me are people that seem to think that in order to promote layer two scaling on-chain scaling has to be severely limited. I am convinced that in order for layer 2 to flourish enough on-chain bandwidth has to be available, not artificial scarceness. In order to allow more on-chain bandwidth also sharding solutions should be investigated so not every transactions has to pass through each node and without the need of channels but protocol between nodes. greets, Staf. --=-+I+6G24rhSS+p4CIZcTh Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iF4EABEIAAYFAljhSq8ACgkQWIjyN0LdGqyQ3gEAtUo93EkF+lQRatwYj3xw0jU9 a8W7DBvyv0bIYTTevFcBAL54oiaLWDWyS3ip+dIhtKA5i8VaOARYA4GPAEbH0f7A =iCRM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-+I+6G24rhSS+p4CIZcTh--
