No amount of tricks can overcome the importance of a full validating node, so forget about SPV. The moment people can't have full validating nodes the whole concept of "peer to peer cash" it's game over.
 

But why?  What's wrong with SPV and fraud proofs for my own transactions?   Why do I need to validate the entire blockchain ?
