  We present Accept, a simple, asynchronous transaction system that achieves
perfect horizontal scaling.
  Usual blockchain-based transaction systems come with a fundamental throughput
limitation as they require that all (potentially unrelated) transactions must
be totally ordered. Such solutions thus require serious compromises or are
outright unsuitable for large-scale applications, such as global retail
payments.
  Accept provides efficient horizontal scaling without any limitation. To that
end, Accept satisfies a relaxed form of consensus and does not establish an
ordering of unrelated transactions. Furthermore, Accept achieves instant
finality and does not depend on a source of randomness.
