    Reading this article on Plasma, it’s amazing to me that people started coding this thing up — when problems like this existed and were unsolved.

    Well written. Anyone who's involved in designing blockchain solutions should read this and think about what are the main lessons from this. Some are more obvious, some are less. For me the main takeaways are:
