RE: [Criptopedia] Bitcoin Cash - BCH
Indeed, since the whole blockchain must be stored to process transactions.
Lightning network? I still dont know. Probably Will make things faster, but might create some problems on the decentralization Topic.
That's the great thing about it! When I'm buying coffee, who cares about decentralization? I just want it fast, and cheap so it makes sense to use the lightning network. But when I'm storing my life savings and transferring large sums, I don't care about fast and cheap. I care about secure and decentralized, so it would only make sense to use the Proof of Work chain. Lightning network wouldn't replace Proof-of-Work, it would simply exist as an option for use in certain scenarios. Do you see any potential problems?
