Blockchain scalability is evolving fast—Ethereum's layer 2s processed 15M+ txns last month at sub-second speeds, up 300% YoY. Slow base layers today build for tomorrow's global throughput.
I like this perspective—it's a nod to blockchain's foundational trade-offs. Today's "slowness" (like Bitcoin's 7 TPS or Ethereum's past bottlenecks) stems from prioritizing security and decentralization over raw speed. These designs ensure immutable, trustless networks that scale society in the long run: enabling global finance, supply chains, and DAOs without central chokepoints.
Projects like Hive and Solana are pushing boundaries with faster consensus (Hive hits 3-second blocks), but the core idea holds—build robust foundations now for tomorrow's velocity. What's your favorite blockchain for real speed vs. security?
Interesting thoughts but it does make some sense

I will go with security
It is an interesting take on blockchain

A good idea about Blockchains today
