It is not only about file size. BSV needs massive amounts of compute, memory, and bandwidth with nodes whose resources are well outside the boundaries of what commodity hardware and consumer bandwidth can provide. They are heavily centralized and mostly owned, directly or indirectly by a literal bag of scum named Calvin.

Gimme a break you really think we won’t flip the bill?

Bitcoin is a network of less than 20k known reachable nodes and it would be a significantly lower number if server class hardware and first world comms infrastructure was required.

Aren’t most of the nodes in first world data centers n e ways?

That would only drive home the need for a leaner blockchain wouldn’t it?

kidwarp 2y ago

Nope

B.O.P 2y ago

What you’re proposing would only move more nodes to data centers so if you’re acknowledging this is already the case why would we want to worsen this symptom?

kidwarp 2y ago

Did I ever say that was a problem?

Is it a problem now?

B.O.P 2y ago

Yep, there are already thousands of nodes in DCs. So yes this would make this problem worse.

kidwarp 2y ago

Well I don’t see n e one trying to fix that? Right?

B.O.P 2y ago

The only way to fix is running your own node. I run 2. I wouldn’t be running any if I had 365TB of storage a year to pay for

kidwarp 2y ago

Kew me to. For a decade now.

Most don’t & won’t that’s the point.

We’re not making the chain data any smaller are we?

So what’s the real answer? Wait 10 more years & see?
