Very informative, I was not around for any of this. My main concern about scaling really just boils down to one thing. When I hear people say that eventually the majority of people won’t even be able to afford to hold their own keys, I find it highly concerning. The ability to self custody is one of the most important things that differentiates it from gold or the fiat system. If that is lost, it seems like a really big problem to me. I realize the base chain doesn’t need to scale for coffee payments, but if you can’t self custody it seems not much different than holding gold in a 3rd party’s vault. What is the optimistic perspective on how this could play out?
