Can you point me to who does that? You know, who actually installs a Dogecoin full node and lets it sync. Because, you know. Cryptocurrency is about eliminating the third party, and last time I used Dogecoin, it was more like peer-to-CEX-to-peer cash.

It is laughable to pretend that the same levels of security and decentralization exist in BSV, Solana, etc. If other coins "manage to do the impossible", how come they are still shitcoins? Has it ever crossed your mind that there is much less activity in both Dogecoin and Litecoin? Have you considered the fact that these can still get pretty much under the same problem? It's just that only 1% of the userbase uses them to transact.

And for once more, the problem isn't the storage requirement for running a full node. It's part of the problem. The greatest problem is the time that it'll take to verify the entire chain, there will be great concern in breaking backwards compatibility, you make spamming costing less, and in the end, you don't solve the problem. You're just delaying it.
