To be fair to Ledger, they just wanted to be first out with a Segwit wallet. They'll be out with an update soon I reckon. It's headline competition. Although saying that, they've had plenty of time to test on testnet

I like that because of metropolis they are pushing back the mining difficulty increase. Think all the eth wallets will go auto gas or keep overcharging?

obviously there has been a lot of talk about how to increase thoughput in bitcoin, mainly by arguing about segwit/block size increase.
my question is: why is there never any talk about just decrease the block time of about 10mins to, lets say, 1min? where is the techhnical limitation when it comes to this?

Hey man, thanks for all the videos!

I think Ledger should focus on ease of use like you pointed out.
