Not to spread FUD, but give a read to this post:

RaiBlocks, not having a proper blockchain, also lacks a way to compare state of two nodes. In Bitcoin you only need to compare the latest hash: if hash is the same, then nodes are in perfect sync. But in RaiBlocks you have multiple "blockchains" for each account, so basically you have to compare state of every account to check that you are in sync. This is incredibly wasteful.
