The DCS Triangle was independently discovered by myself and Trent =
McConaghy.
It is a useful tool for clearing confusion about blockchain scalability =
and blocksize-related debates.
The DCS Theorem is a probability proof of the triangle, and it's now on =
arXiv:
https://arxiv.org/abs/1801.04335 <https://arxiv.org/abs/1801.04335>
Cheers,
