Limiting the number of participating nodes
- Since every node is not allowed to validate every transaction, we somehow need nodes to have a statistical and economic means to ensure that other blocks are secure.
- There must be some way to guarantee data availability.
- Transactions need to be processed by different nodes in parallel in order to achieve scalability. However, transitioning state on the blockchain also has several non-parallelizable (serial) parts, so we’re faced with some restrictions on how we can transition state on the blockchain while balancing both parallelizability and utility.
