ETH is literally better

are you really that retarded?
cuz its fucking better
who gives a shit about gigabytes dude we're in the time of terabytes fuck gigabytes nice fud pajeet
>>2475373
>2017
>doesn't have at least 2Tb storage on mining rig
Gtfo faggot

mETH heads ladies and gentlemen.
ETH shills kindly explain what will happen when people actually start using smart contracts
are you going to store 10TB - 100TB of data?
>>2475509
i will bet you that there will be dedicated eth offline hardware wallets (online through a cord only, transactions can even be signed on a separate offline setup so the private key never sees online) that will be able to do EVERYTHING a desktop wallet can do, not just cold storage.
185gb is more than 151gg, that makes erytheum better.
>>2475509
people are already using smart contracts, dumbfuck
>>2475454
I don't think the size is a problem in itself, but that's a lot of redundancy and also very cumbersome to synchronize. It will probably be inevitable to have centralized or decentralized hardware banks specifically build to hold the chain once it hits the 500+GB range.

>ETH is literally Hitler
fixed
>>2475604
So... ETH is literally the best?
>>2475604
going to buy more eth then
>>2475373
Damn, ETH has made a lot of transactions in a short time! It's really gonna pass bitcoin soon
>>2475373
Whyes blockchain size matter when any good crypto has a light wallet and terabytes of storage is cheap AF nowadays
>>2475668
but its hitler. wont someone think of the j00s
>>2475373
who does this fag think he is
FUD
LTC blockchain size: 8 GB
ETH blockchain size: 185 GB
BTC blockchain size: 151 GB
LTC's the winner?
>>2475732
it's a flat out lie, ETH blockchain is 64GB, I just posted a screenshot of the directory
>>2475509
I think sharding is supposed to solve this in the future.
>>2475373
um, buy a bigger hard drive?
>>2475742
It's 71.51 GB according to:
https://bitinfocharts.com/ethereum/
BTC is 142.16 GB
https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin/
>>2475702
is that windows 98?
>>2475587
Wrong. Hard drive space will always out scale the size of the b chain.
>>2475796
>the bland GUIs keep the normies out.
lol
>>2475373
Where the hell is he getting these numbers? Isn't eth blockchain only like 7-8 gb?
>>2475373
Here is the actual data
https://ethereum.stackexchange.com/questions/13452/what-is-the-actual-blockchain-size
So let me guess, another nocoiner/ buttdummy is mad Ethereum is destroying buttcoin
>>2475373
What I don't understand is why we have to download the whole goddamned thing. Why cant we just start on the chain back to when we first started using it and not 7 years ago?
Like tell it to start downloading from block 234534 and forget all the crap before it.
>tfw Monero fluffyblocks can solve all this shit
>>2476036
You're a fucking idiot.
>>2476036
If you forget all the crap before it, how can you verify block 234534 is legit?
You connect to me as a peer, and I send you block 234534. In my version of block 234534, all your coins are on my address because they were "sent" to me previously.
This shit isn't as simple that any brainlet can grasp it.
>>2475794
Yeah...please read that again, the size is not a problem in itself. But synchronization is going to become more and more cumbersome, and the redundancy stops being a positive tradeoff between transactions once it goes past a certain range, because hard drive size is irrelevant, memory transfer speeds are the stake here; and they are not growing as fast as blockchain size.
don't be so sure, you are not running full node

>>2475373
Ethereum's wallet is pure crap. Slow as fuck wtf. Why does it take hours to sync a few hours worth of transactions?
>>2476067
DONT GO THERE if you dont want to compromise your wallets
just about nobody in this thread actually understands what that means, let alone its implications
just keep on shilling whatever you want, nobody actually uses any crypto besides btc (and barely that at all) for anything
>>2476060
Because you verify it against the other nodes. Isn't that why we confirm things already?
>>2476098
But you're not connected to thousands of peers to have a real verification across all of them (imagine the time that computation would take as well). You'd be connected to say 20 of your "closest" peers. What if all of those are controlled by the attacker?
>>2475509
Store it on Sia
>>2476113
I get it. Its just that if I fall 20 hours behind, it takes a day and a half to catch up.
