You do realize that as soon as there is an increased demand for transactions again, fees will go through the roof again, right?

So you are saying that we need to architect for speculative, pump-and-dump throughput that happens over a few month period every 2-3 years? It literally sounds like you are saying that. That was never the use case nor the purpose of Bitcoin.

Maybe you should get your head out of your ass so you can better hear what I am saying instead of making up your own shit.

Anybody that has run the numbers knows that the current network cannot even remotely handle global transactional demand.

And Lightning Network is the answer to that. Not just more block size pile on.

The amount of people using bitcoin worldwide is still quite tiny. I would hope that it is our goal to increase our userbase and thus the amount of places and people that accept your bitcoins.

Again, block size increases have nothing to do with the promotion of increasing userbase or merchant adoption. If that were the case, merchants and end users would be going crazy for BCash right now.

News flash, Walter Cronkite: They aren't.
