cascius why not just make an exact perfect copy of bitcoin and call it bitcoin2 as soon as tx fees become a problem.
If each kind of bitcoin floated freely, it would be too complex for users to be useful, as well as costly in terms of friction exchanging between them. It's important that all the units be alike.
Why not batch them just like credit card transactions? You get a middle that's willing to deal in hundreds of thousands of tiny transactions and then process them as larger transactions every X time period.
This suggestion is not relevant to the problem I'm talking about nor the solution I'm proposing. I notice on another thread you're asking how mining works. It is understandable that without a clear picture of how mining works and how blocks are formed, it's not clear why doing this won't help. Hang in there though, with Bitcoin there comes a lot to learn, and you've got the right kind of mind to be helpful.
