Blockchain-MicroSD <> perfect for bandwidth limited bitcoiners!

[dogtor]

So you want to run a full node (bitcoin-core) and not have to rely on 3rd party servers (electrum etc.) to run your bitcoin client, but you don't have the bandwidth capacity to download the whole 20+ gigabyte blockchain? Then Blockchain-MicroSD is for you!

Even on a 50 Mb/s connection it can take hours and hours to sync your client. While the client is syncing it also uses up your computer's resources, so you may have a tough time working on whatever it is you usually do during the day. With Blockchain-MicroSD, all you need to do is insert it into your computer and copy the included file into your bitcoin data directory. It takes 1/20th of the time it would normally take if you synced the old-fashioned way. Plus, once you have copied the file to your computer, you can use the MicroSD card for whatever you want! This MicroSD model comes with a standard SD adapter.

Good question! According to the graph on this page: https://blockchain.info/charts/blocks-size, the blockchain grows about 33 MB per day (~1 GB per month / 30 days). Blockchain-MicroSD is intended to replace the initial downloading of the 20+ GB. 33 MB / day should be doable for those on limited internet connections. As time goes on there will be more current versions of the blockchain available on Blockchain-MicroSDs as well.
