When all of this is put together, we see that Steem does have the ability to scale.

I think within the next six years we'll be seeing off-chain scaling solutions with Steem. You can basically sign transactions and send them peer to peer, then if someone tries to cheat the smart contract you take it back to the main chain, prove they cheated, and penalize them.

Something like this is bound to happen during the next bubble (or the one after that) when throughput becomes a huge issue again. Well know when big RC pools actually become worth something organizations are willing to pay big money for.
