At the #Nervos deep dive in Palo Alto. Secure, Decentralized consensus is necessary slow. The solution to scaling is to decrease the demand for consensus by moving normal operations to layer 2.
You can implement crypto primitives in C or RISC-V assembly and have acceptable speed. Common primitives can be accelerated via JETs as in Urbit or Simplicity.

The native asset of Nervos is the Common Knowledge Byte, that allows you to store data. You pay for transaction fees in terms of state capacity with cycles of RISC-V (with a floating cycle price just like the Ethereum GAS price).

Nervos uses PoW, still the only proven approach for decentralized participation, and is good for data availability.
