Add Subspace to the list #110
Conversation
Subspace is a layer one blockchain with over 300 stars on a [Github repo](https://github.com/subspace/subspace) and 10,000 nodes according to [telemetry](https://telemetry.subspace.network/#/0x0c121c75f4ef450f40619e1fca9d1e8e7fbabc42c895bc4790801e85d5a91c34). Would appreciate if you add the project to the list, thanks!

It's certainly not the first. This trilemma was always bullshit. It's just that early chains designs were dumb.

Curious what other projects you're referring to that solved the scalability issues with no compromises?

Polkadot. Mina maybe first. Many zk roll ups. (all somewhat conventional looking threat models)
Omniledger paper was kinda early too. An implementation even exists, unsure if ever deployed. (80% honest)
All the false cases poses a problem here too..
Optimistic roll ups claim this. Imho they're wrong, but arguing that gets nasty: Alone, the word "secure" means "in threat models reasonable experts accept", not "in the threat model that favors my pet project." You need to write down their implicit assumptions before arguing they're unreaosnable. Afaik nobody ever bothered.
Payment channels claim this. Afaik they're secure, but not really scalable. Although easier, arguing this still becomes nasty.
Individual bridges between two chains cannot be called scalable, but if both chains have real finality then their threat model is 2/3 honest on both, not all necessarily so bad. A bridge ecosystem like cosmos becomes scalable, but wrecks this threat model. It's plauslbe however that cosmos' airdrop culture kinda adequately addressed this in practice, if only by dumb luck. Afak nobody ever surveyed zones' validator overlap. At least this should fall appart easily if you keep everything in theory land.
