We should design protocols that do reasonably well in *both* scenarios. Bec=
ause
the future is unknown. Hell, I won't be surprised if further developments c=
ome
along that reduce demand for on-chain txs even further.
The fact is basing security budget in part on the total value of the coin b=
eing
secured very cleanly solves the problem of ensuring that there is sufficient
mining reward. Similarly, we also have to plan for the potential environment
where fee demand is very high. And we've done a good job of that, including
Lightning, replace-by-fee, etc.
