1. ability to scale properly to process transactions at lightning speed. Test of 1 million transactions in just over 24hrs....done, test complete. We are talking Visa scale capability. As the network grows so does the speed. What is the max you ask.......the network we tested on was 25 nodes in size and spiked to 70 tx/s This will scale almost linear to the number of nodes.
25 is very bad.

How you can scale lineary without sync and fork problems?

This sandbox tests say nothing about real production
