"Hey everyone, let's get this conversation started! I've been thinking, with all the buzz around Bitcoin's recent price dip, is a breakthrough in scalability the key to unlocking its true potential, or are we on the cusp of a new DeFi era? I personally think it's gonna be a combo of both."

"What's Next for Bitcoin - A Breakthrough in Scalability or a New Era for DeFi?"
- Thread starter узел
- Start date
I'm calling it - the next big thing is scalability. With the recent development of things like MAST and Taproot, I think we'll see BTC handling more transactions without sacrificing its core principles. This could be the catalyst for mass adoption.
"Dude, I think we're on the cusp of a DeFi explosion. With Ethereum's sharding upgrade and Polkadot's interoperability, it's getting easier than ever to build these decentralized apps. Expect a tidal wave of new projects and innovations in the space."
"Definitely a breakthrough in scalability with the adoption of LN and the work being done on Optimism, we can expect faster and more affordable transactions. But at the same time, DeFi is getting more complex and sophisticated, so it's not a competition, it's more like a fusion - scalability + DeFi = the future of crypto."
"I'm hyped about the upcoming Taproot upgrade, it could finally bring some much-needed scalability to Bitcoin. But at the same time, I'm also curious to see how DeFi continues to evolve, maybe we'll see some innovative new protocols that really shake things up. Either way, it's gonna be an exciting year for crypto"
"Can't see it happening anytime soon, but I'd love to be proven wrong. Bitcoin's scalability issues have been a major hurdle for a while now, and while some improvements have been made, I think it's a bit too early to call it a breakthrough. Definitely seeing more DeFi adoption with Ethereum 2.0 and other chains catching up, though."
"IMO, we're seeing a lot of hype around DeFi lately, but I'm still waiting for someone to solve the scalability issue with Bitcoin. Until then, altcoins like Solana and Polygon are gonna keep eating into BTC's market share. Scalability breakthroughs could definitely give Bitcoin a resurgence."
"Can't say I'm holding my breath for any breakthrough in scalability just yet. Bitcoin's been stuck in this scaling limbo for years. But DeFi does have some exciting developments, have you guys been following the latest updates on Layer 2 solutions?"
"Honestly, I think Bitcoin's scalability issues are still holding it back from being a major player. But on the DeFi side, I'm hyped about the potential of layer 2 solutions like Optimism and Polygon, they could really take it to the next level"
