Currently, yes. However, the Ethereum foundation is actively working on addressing that limitation, and there are some very clever proposals for how to get around the problem. Unlike Bitcoin, Ethereum development is very active and the community welcomes major changes if they are worthwhile. I agree that Ethereum needs to solve the scaling problem to be successful, but I think Vitalik and the foundation have a good shot at doing it.
- Taek 11y ago"Unlike Bitcoin"?? Bitcoin has a multiple-factor greater mindshare. More developers, more researchers, more conferences, and more overall maturity. There are a lot of incorrect things in this thread.
- semiel 11y agoBitcoin can barely agree to a minimal blocksize increase. The Ethereum proposals for stuff like sharding would be complete non-starters in the Bitcoin world.
