Re:Why Cryptocurrencies?: For the Unbanked by lawn on Friday September 06, 2019 @05:23AM (#20894218)
Not true at all. Bitcoin Cash could for example process around 20x to 30x the amount of transactions as Bitcoin, with the same low fees as today.

There are scaling challenges of course, but Bitcoin is not a good example of that. The technical issues come at a much higher usage.

The unbanked, like 99% of all others, should use light wallets or SPV wallets so they don't have to store the whole blockchain.
