    Logical conclusion: nothing goes on blockchain. Better approach: put on blockchain small data that needs vulnerability reduction the most.https://twitter.com/muneeb/status/879901945170989056 …

    8/ My prediction is that protocols that focus on minimizing on-chain data instead of trying to scale on-chain will end up winning.

        It seems to me a strict monetary policy rule & censorship resistance are the only things worth the hassle & cost of putting on a blockchain

        Blockchains are a wall of truth that hide from no one. The best invention in human history to store immutable data accessible by all.

        Storage costs will become so trivial that most information of value will be stored on blockchains & potentially humanity's lasting legacy.

        I think having hundreds of blockchains like we currently do is already the answer. data can be stored across many chains, just like currency

        Blockchain is extremely computationally inefficient so perhaps this analogy doesn't apply.

        Why say "security" when you can say "vulnerability reduction" in a tweet? Best approach: figure out how to reduce proof sizes for use cases.
