Excuse me, could you please explain what the Bitcoin block size refers to? I'm a bit confused about how it works within the context of the bitcoin network. Specifically, how does the block size impact the transaction speed and capacity of the network? Also, are there any debates or discussions ongoing about adjusting the block size to improve scalability and efficiency? Thank you for your clarification.
