ETHEREUM BLOCKCHAIN SIZE IS NOW 180GB SO 40% BIGGER THAN BITCOIN BLOCKCHAIN !

Good to see many ETH believers here. I like the strength of belief here

Satoshi already see this from miles aways the reason he want to add size little at a time, not 4mb, not 50mb or 1gb per transaction, Eth fall into the trap. Ark have this solution by split with delegate nodes.

[Spoetnik]

That is huge I think..
For home users it is a problem..
I would not want that much space used on my HD.

But is this inevitable with coins?

Not that it matters.. Ethereum is not a currency.
It's a scammy ass APP's gimmick ICO "fuel tokens" not a currency me too "coin"
..for profits

So in your opinion who will benefit in the end? Something is not straight here

The strength of the belief is shown in the plunge today. ETH is game over

It lost 9% in the last 24hrs on CoinMarketCap and still at $222 each so not exactly game over yet but it well could be soon

I read that the ethereum block size will reach one terabyte in the next few years. I doubt if it will be manageable, currently my laptop has one terabyte.

I hear stories about developers going to make a mini-me of the blockchain to make it more appealing to Joe Public

Bravo to the Ardor devs for having tackle the scalability issue of blockchain a year and a half ago and are now ready to release Ardor at the end of Q3.
https://www.ardorplatform.org/

ICO of the first childchain IGNIS will be on IGNIS and you will need NXT to participate as the crowdfund will be made on the NXT platform.
https://www.jelurida.com/ico

"All child chain transactions will be possible to prune completely, without affecting blockchain security, thus allowing the blockchain size to be kept much smaller. A new node joining the network only needs to download the parent chain transactions, followed by the latest snapshot of the current system state.*"
from https://www.jelurida.com/ardor-nxt-feature-comparison

But is this inevitable with coins?

This kind of problem won't be an issue on the Ardor platform.

Ethereum should surely have a larger size as the supply is also more than that of bitcoin, there was surely a pre mined ico scam involved but you can't just give up on ethereum , if you do remember is was really close to beat bitcoin but just missed is because of various reasons. Syncing issues are surely there but you can use myetherwallet for that it is trusted and works perfectly

Good thing I change into my wallet into myetherwallet. It was first a requirement in regards compatibility in a campaign. So I have to change I think it is because of ERC20 i cant remember much.

I ran a poll and the users here voted 72% when i asked do you believe in Ethereum.
And most said NO but they trade it for profits.

So we already know that.. it was obvious all along.

So is ETH going to sink to the same levels as once upon a time giants like QuarkCoin, FastCoin and alike?

I mean who wants to wait a week for the block to sync? Who wants to carry 180GB+ of blockchain for a coin that is NOT #1 and will never be #1

 

This is why Pascalcoin is the future.   Funds are stored in account numbers which allows the transactions themselves to be trimmed from the block chain.  Keeps the block chain limited to around 6gb in size and increases anonymity since the paper trail eventually gets trimmed after a time.   Once the transaction is confirmed by enough nodes or miners there's no reason or need to keep a complete transaction record going back to the very beginning.  The account numbers hold the data while the addresses merely facilitate the transaction.

So overall most people who use ETH are happy with it, regardless of syncing issues?

[findingthemoon]

A lot of FUD goes on about ethereum on this forum but I've yet to see any users that really complain about blockchain size or syncing time. The number one complaint has always been the same as that for bitcoin, scaling issues especially handling the mass transactions during big ICOs and they are working on fixing it much faster and better than bitcoin is.

I feel an incoming request to WD , Seagate etc.
The future is a preinstalled  Ethereum blockchain HDD's or SSD's.  Great addon  for your Fat Client.

I do not see that as a solution, there has to be something else happening to keep people happy.

Any estimation about the size of the ETH network if all the Bitcoin transactions were made in ETH instead of BTC?

And people talk like this is the miracle coin, and it is going to replace all others. Well, it certainly encompasses the biggest issues of all the other coins

It just does not do it for me, I believe ETH is not the answer and better solutions will pop-up over time
