I believe that the demand is\n\u003e infinite if you don't set a fee minimum (and I don't think we should),\n\u003e and it just takes time for the market to find a way to fill whatever\n\u003e is available - the rest goes into off-chain systems anyway. You will\n\u003e run out of capacity at any size, and acting out of fear of that\n\u003e reality does not improve the system. Whatever size blocks are actually\n\u003e produced, I believe the result will either be something people\n\u003e consider too small to be competitive (\"you mean Bitcoin can only do 24\n\u003e transactions per second?\" sounds almost the same as \"you mean Bitcoin\n\u003e can only do 3 transactions per second?\"), or something that is very\n\u003e centralized in practice, and likely both.\n\nWhat if we reduce the block size to 0.125MB? That will allow 0.375tx/s. \nIf 3-\u003e24 sounds \"almost the same\", 3-\u003e0.375 also sounds almost the same. \nWe will have 50000 full nodes, instead of 5000, since it is so \naffordable to run a full node.\n\nIf 0.125MB sounds too extreme, what about 0.5/0.7/0.9MB? Are we going to \nhave more full nodes?\n\nNo, I'm not trolling. I really want someone to tell me why we \nshould/shouldn't reduce the block size. Are we going to have more or \nless full nodes if we reduce the block size?"}
