2010-07-29 "The current system where every user is a network node is not the intended configuration for large scale. That would be like every Usenet user runs their own NNTP server. The design supports letting users just be users. The more burden it is to run a node, the fewer nodes there will be. Those few nodes will be big server farms. The rest will be client nodes that only do transactions and don't generate,"

wondering if Satoshi was talking about mining only or also about processing the chain. But data, only state, can be much easier sharded so for data on chain I think special ops would be better (eg. built in namecoin like k/v store)..

Maybe Bitcoin SV isn't such a bad idea after all. 🤷‍♂️
