Our goal is to scale Farcaster to 1 million daily users. Farcaster will need to handle 10,000 messages / second while staying credibly decentralized. That's roughly in the same order of magnitude as most global credit card networks. Here's our proposal: https://github.com/farcasterxyz/protocol/discussions/163

@v Strong write-up. Thank you for making these, they are clearly a labor of love. I read this doc 2x which means I don't have enough context but I one thing I notice is there isn't a clear end-to-end latency budget and then tiny latency budgets for each step in the sync value chain. Happy to explain more via DM IRL.
