According to Dave (@ItsDave_ADA), Solana's attempt to scale at the Layer 1 level without increasing centralization is encountering significant obstacles. The requirement for voting transactions necessary for consensus is consuming a large portion of the available blockspace, which could impact transaction throughput and efficiency. This situation presents a challenge for traders relying on Solana's scalability for quick and cost-effective transactions.

According to BitMEX Research, while it is possible to choose larger blocks without implementing SegWit, the process is significantly slower. SegWit allows users to independently upgrade their systems, enabling immediate access to increased blockspace without waiting for network-wide upgrades. This can be advantageous for traders looking to optimize transaction speed and efficiency.
