Mina is a "lightweight" smart contract platform that aims to become a global payment system. Solve the scalability problem existing in existing blockchains, where the cost of validating the blockchain grows proportionally to the total transaction throughput. In these cases, the cost of running a network node can end up exceeding the resources available to most real-world users.
