> So far, we’ve reached speeds of over 30 000 transactions per second on a local network
and 15 000 transaction on a global network, but we expect to improve these numbers in
the next 2-3 months.

At those speeds, assuming a single tx takes about 250 bytes, a full node would fill up a 1TB drive in a few days, and new nodes would struggle to ever finish the initial block download...

It's easy to be scalable if you have no concerns for bandwidth and storage requirements...
