Synchronizing a node has cost me 4 days, of these 4 days 50% has been taken by the last year.

Terabytes of data read on an ssd...if the bullshit inscriptions continue, in 10 years no one will be able to sync a Bitcoin node at home.

As you can see, it is not feasible to increase the block size, nor is it feasible to allow crappy inscriptions in the chain.

Some of you are either dumb or have never run a node and give hypocritical opinions.

Some of us still believe in decentralization.

With bip158 you get privacy without having to run a full Bitcoin node.

You can run your node without inscriptions and Runes and whatnot with Bitcoin knots 🤷🏼‍♂️

So what's the solution? Even if we lower the block size, these morons will continue burning cash to push their scams.

I run 3 nodes. 2 full, (1 knots, 1 core) and a pruned node. I have taken to Locally updating the timechain on a separate storage device every quarter as a much quicker data loader. Although I wish the Pruned node was utilized for more software.

Dude, I used to wait for weeks to download a music album, and you are saying 4 days is too long to secure your stack? In 10 years people will still be able to run nodes without problem, not to mention there are people working on alternative core implementations that sync faster.

As far as I understand, the 4 Mb block size will in the future always be fully utilized with whatever is humanly possible on BTC. It's futile to argue moralistically here. Ordinals, runes, NFTs ... whatever humans find useful will be inscribed on that block space. Precisely because it's the most sec...

in the near future the whole world will be on Starlink high-internet speeds. I don't see this as a major issue, the #Bitcoin marketplace is open to anyone for any purpose the protocol rule allow. Therefore, let people waste Sats on blockspace if that's what they want to do, they will be outbid in th...

If you found the experience difficult, imagine what your computer had to go through 😂

I remember the Bitcoin core team was working on a fast synchronization mechanism based on using bip157/158. I remember they tested it and the partially synchronized node was ready in minutes. I don't know what happened after that or why it was never meeged.

storage is only gotta get cheaper though

1. SSDs are so cheap nowadays. 2. The price per GB will continue to decrease. 3. There are ways to speedup the initial sync. 4. Four days is not that long anyways for something that you only have to do once. 5. You can run a pruned node. 6. Only shitcoiners are into Inscriptions/Ordinals, let them w...

Up until now, I haven't cared much one way or the other with regard to inscriptions - I know almost nothing about how they work. Not being able to sync a node in 10 years would be a good reason to start caring, though. What is it about inscriptions that take so much time to sync. I think I know e...

If syncing via network becomes too slow, one could resort to ordering/sending/receiving an SSD with a blockchain that's a few days/weeks old via mail? Exporting the blockchain to another SSD from a running node should be fast/easy. So only a few GBs would be left to load via network.

Demurrage Fixes this Storage Rent is the only viable option for fixing chain bloat

either dumb or have never run a node, true, I would add a third, they know what they are doing and have bad intentions.

Bitcoin Boomer · 66w

It's quite annoying. I think I remember Ocean working on a way to filter these transactions out of blocks they add to the blockchain, but they're just one player. I'm still trying to learn more about the mining side of things. Maybe some day I'll try to give that a whirl, but not until I understa...

Dont forget to take morris law into account. 10 years from now, you will not have the same storage capacity that you have now. Also, synchronizing it not a problem I think. Who cares if it takes 4days or 4weeks.. + If the increasing weight of the blockchain surpasses the increasing storage capacity ...

The present moment is all we have, it’s all anyone has, we can strive for change yes, but adaptation is of utmost importance.

Did you consider the freaking increase in technological developpement in the last few year? Computing power will catch up
