   Cypherpunks recommended ways the Bitcoin blockchain might be made
   deterministic in length. Though not directly addressing the scaling
   issue it nevertheless would tackle other, for example, node resource
   issues. It would also prevent "submarining" issues with the huge number
   of early mined coins which have never moved and redistribution of lost
   coins.

     Polygon (MATIC), a layer-two network designed for scaling and
     application infrastructure development on Ethereum (ETH)...
     Any coin that depends on and runs on top of a network
     that is itself nonscalable... is therefore also not scalable.
     Ethereum does not scale because, like nearly all other coins,
     it requires an amount of physical storage space that grows
     without bound over time to store all the transactions. This
     blows out individual repos thus depending users on non-private
     sharding lookup schemes, over realtime non-private analyzable
     internets,
     into massive storage clouds holding lifetimes of privacy break
     risks,
     and that don't need to exist in the first place. Etc.
     ZKP DAG etc can help create coins whose physical growth
     is counted by endless transactions, but to limited addresses,
     a far smaller number, made further smaller due to privacy.
     Look into making using and adopting a new class of
     necessarily sans-tx-storage privacy coins.
     The future belongs to... privacy, sans-tx-storage, crosscoin DEX.
     Invent the future.
