> If this is truly like the early internet, they should have vastly improved over the past ten years They have. There are other cryptocurrencies besides Bitcoin. Even the worst proof-of-stake chains have multiple orders of magnitude better throughput and latency than Bitcoin does. Hell, there are plenty of other proof-of-work chains with better throughput and latency than Bitcoin. And that's all entirely ignoring sidechains and other such shenanigans pushing transaction rates and speeds even further.
