"Trust the 'Science'. Even thought I don't get it fully. Because it sounds sciency~" "Just trying to prove myself right any means necessary, mentioning things that doesn't even exist in Kaspa" You just hear some stuff that you dont fully understand and, go "oh so thats why" *clueless*. THE mAth doesnt "prove" what you think it proves... Or you dont know what is suppose to be proving. you think you have some cool new solution while mentioning 40 years old papers. kaspa literally doesn't use zero knowledge proofs. it uses muhash commitments and sampled headers. which is a hash of a set. it commits to what the set is, not to how the set was derived. even if it did, zk proofs require a prover. someone generates the proof. bitcoin doesn't need a prover. i am the prover. i run the computation myself from genesis. you invoked zk proofs to sound technical. but kaspa doesn't even have them. and even if it did, it wouldn't solve the "valid by whose rules" problem. it would just move the trust to whoever generated the proof. you don't even know what the scripts are.... as a newcomer node. https://medium.com/@jcroger/why-archive-nodes-are-no-longer-essential-the-kaspa-proof-f15d3b64d24a > While you can’t prove cryptographically that pre-pruning history is valid once it’s dropped, **social consensus** ensures that if deceit happened, at least one honest node would have detected it and preserved proof. This hybrid model guarantees consistency

About trust, civilization, and pruning block data

> The primary goal of consensus systems is **facilitating agreement, not enforcing consistency**. And if the economic majority happens to follow and maintain a ledger to which an invalid transaction entered at some point in history, so be it, > Kaspa nodes prune block data by default, and new nodes by default do not request historical data, rather, they **sync in SPV mode**, i.e., by downloading and verifying only block headers. kaspa is just the other side of the bcash coin. "fuck verifying txs, we will just have lots of txs" honestly im tried of all "lets make L1 fast" "solutions". L1 suppose to be slow and small. stop trying to walk around it.
