Read_889 - Bitcoin for Engineers - Solving Real, Not Theoretical Problems

Today we dive into a piece by Brunswick that makes it crystal
clear why characteristics even claimed to be major defects or
Bitcoin's design - from its "ossification" to its limited
throughput - aren't defects as often claimed, but deliberate and
essential characteristics for building the world's monetary
foundation. Can a protocol that prioritizes integrity over speed
truly solve the fundamental problems of global finance that have
plagued nations for centuries? And why do so many engineers miss
the crucial difference between building applications and building
the base layer that everything else depends on?
