  intentionally throttling the network to collect more fees is like strangling the golden goose to get more eggs.

Or like jumping out of a certain wooden sculpture when the walls of Troy first come into view?

Our like trying to charge money for an infinite resource?

How many individuals do you think will be incentivized to store more than a petabyte of data with no compensation? The good news is that Gavin's plan is preposterous and will never gain traction, so fortunately there's nothing to worry about.  Cool

2036 is in 21 years. How big was a hard drive 21 years ago?  (hint: a tiny fraction of the storage on my current 3 year old phone).  Storage is so cheap now that if you include cloud storage like dropbox, it's free.
This is the same fallacy the Malthusians made about mass starvation with population doubling every forty years.  Didn't happen. All famines today are political, including ours.

some people have no foresight  Cheesy

Since 0.11 (Both core and XT) it's also been possible to run a node with a pruned blockchain

For example to limit blockchain to latest 10 GB of history would be:
Code:
$ bitcoind -prune=10000

When pruning is active the wallet is disabled as a safety feature. But if no problems arise, I guess it will be enabled soon.

Maybe this culls some fears of the blockchain bloat as the user can now choose how much data he/she is willing to store and still run a fully validating node. It's one less obstacle to growth of bitcoin and increasing/lifting blocksize cap.

WTF, BJA?Huh?


At least if you make some kind of factual representation regarding current events, you could be a little more accurate. 

It appears that Bitfinex came back on line for about 2.5 minutes, and during that time, around 1000 BTC were traded... but they were NOT merely one player dumping coins, but instead there were a lot of trades back and forth between approximately $219 and $223.

Sorry, a thousand coins were either market sold or hit their ask price. UPDATE back up to $223
