> 1. We have Lightning and SegWit so thankfully we do not need to deal with blocksizes anymore really. Regardless of the current proposal in this email thread, just because we have Lightning doesn't mean we don't ever have to increase the blocksize again. Even with Lightning there would be too many channel open and closes to be able to handle million users without transaction fees going through the roof. I am advocating to keep the blocksize low right now, but I don't leave out in increasing it in the future when we have a need for it, preferably via an extension block (softfork).
