I have a question. How big is the Monero blockchain? I decided to use the full client and I was wondering if 10gb is enough to sync the blockchain. Also I would like to ask how fast the syncing is.

The price is bouncing back, nice, maybe the price will keep above 0.006 in the future. Maybe back to 0.003, who knows.

10 GB is probably barely enough for the file on disk, although the actual blockchain is only about 1/3 of that since (some optimization remains to be done on the efficiency of storage use). The speed of syncing varies greatly depending on your hardware and bandwidth. I can sync from scratch in 1-2 hours but others report a few days.

According to someone reddit post (6 months ago) 10 GB can be not enought - https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/45hu6p/blockchain_sizewhich_wallet/

Even if you're talking about a USB thumb drive, you can get 32G or 64G fairly cheap, and of course a regular hard drive with more capacity would be better. Those are also fairly cheap. I just checked Amazon for both types of storage and you can get them from $20 to $40 US. It would be better to have a little extra space and not need it than to have not enough space.

USB thumb drive...cheap...
I just bought a 128mb PNY at Walmart for USD 34, FYI. 2TB SATA-II, $509.

Soon, no mixing service will be able to "hide" BTC transactions.
Moreover, all of those past transactions through mixers are going to redflag you. The cows already left the barn. I am hoping you used a non-cooperating, un-penetrated, exchange as a cut-out, because otherwise your coinbase/circle accounts are going to get locked down, and your PII goes on a DHS/DOJ/DOT/JTF/FinCen red letter list. No security clearance for you. (Oh and that non-cooperation and un-penetrated status has to persist until your death.) Fortunately the U.S. doesn't usually apply hereditary taint domestically, so your children will be okay. For now. Until the U.S. and Chinese systems converge more fully. They are tending to converge pretty strongly lately, though. It's not paranoia when they really are out to get you.

At least I didn't show my age by slipping KB. I suppose if I want to translate the GUI to Chinese, I should show up in #monero-dev, ask about which branch to touch, and make a pull request to it. Seems really worthwhile to me. They need Monero pretty badly in China.
