But I don't see why there is the need for hostility.
Because you're being disingenuous. Despite having this pointed out multiple times in countless threads you are still propagating falsehoods.
"Bitcoin can not scale to high transaction rates on affordable hardware" is false.
"Bitcoin requires improvements to the way it stores and broadcasts blocks in order to scale to high transaction rates on affordable hardware" is true.
And in what way should that be possible?
Please give concrete suggestions.
edit: I've logged just 7 hours so far reading this forum so it's likely I haven't seen the posts in which it is explained how you can make Bitcoin scale to 1000+ transactions/s, so please be a bit patient with me if I don't know the suggested ideas already.
