It depends on the definition of scaling, computational scaling is limited and favours sharding of contexts then maybe use zk proofs to settle between contexts. But data availability isn't doomed, it i...

Even if we assume away the problem of data availability it wouldn't be great to have the entirety of the world's monetary transactions depend on a single company building the blocks and publishing zk-proofs. I guess you can say this block generation can be made to be more open, but I think the incentives are that it would be very centralized regardless, no?

I mean it depends on what are you trying to achieve, humans seem to be ok with few seconds latency for anything except very hectic metro lines, in which case you are better off with prepaid cards. But for everything else, if Rootstock has 15s blocks, I believe that is enough, and requires no central...
