I don't like doing my homework and and am not very good with numbers.
Utter nonsense about Dash having bloat, I did these calculations a while back (end of January), others have seen this post before.
Please do check my numbers if you dare.
The stats used are from bitinfocharts:- Darkcoin blockchain size = 0.5715 GigaBytes Days since genesis block=370 days
Average Rate of growth for blockchain per day=1.5 MegaBytes/day quarkcoin block size = 2.4 GigaBytes
days since genesis block = 550 days
average rate of growth for blockchain per day = 4.3 MegaBytes/day
litecoin blockchain size = 3.99 GigaBytes
days since genesis block = 1201 days
average rate of growth for blockchain per day = 3.3 MegaBytes/day
dogecoin blockchain size = 8.49 GigaBytes
days since genesis block = 412 days
average rate of growth for blockchain per day = 20 MegaBytes/day
bitcoin blockchain size = 34.3 GigaBytes
days since genesis block = 2205 days
average rate of growth for blockchain = 15 MegaBytes/day
Monero blockchain size =3.5 gigabytes days since genesis block =303 days
average rate of growth for blockchain =11.6 megabytes/daysure, but as discussed above this is because nobody is using Darksend.....if they were, at which point you can reasonably stand DRK alongside other anon coins, then the bloat would be there.
people bash XMR because it will bloat with real-world anon use, but so will DRK, it just isn't now because it isn't being used for real-world anon.
