With few thousand shards bitcoin price rises to one million and twenty trillion market will be much harder to move than the current one.

Good point: The ultimate solution to volatility is having bitcoin price and the market cap orders of magnitude higher and it is not achievable without basic improvement to performance, decentralization and security, all 3 at the same time.

The bad news is about a bunch of genius out there telling us: "It is impossible, it is 'Trilemma', it is 'Trisector', blah, blah" in cryptocurrency, people feel 'genius' too much, it is a contagious disease, take care  Wink

Anyway, in the thread, using Atomic Swap for moving coins intra-shard has been questioned basically.  I've proposed an alternative approach there which makes such transactions almost unnecessary.
