I think OP is referring to this:

https://news.bitcoin.com/gigablock-testnet-researchers-mine-the-worlds-first-1gb-block/

TL;DR: Bitcoin Unlimited are researching large blocks and managed to mine a 1GB block on one of their testnets.

Well, if this comes true then we can say goodbye to "regular home nodes"  Cheesy.
Where the hell we supposed to store the blockchain with such blocks (the current blockchain size bugs me and was forced to buy new HDD for it).
