As a result of the increase in block size Bitcoin cash can do about 40 transactions a minute this compares with 24,000 a minute for mastercard and visa

This why the only way to compete with the current settlement system is to build a processing system on to of the bitcoin chain such as is proposed by lightning.
Increasing the block size results in the centralisation of the system . A centralisation of the system results in the subjection of the crypto to the trusted third party system. A return to the trusted third party system results in the control of the government and the banks . The control of the government and banks results in the continued theft of wealth from customers that Satoshi Nakomoto was trying to stop
