lol. You only have to download the chain one time - forever.
People sit in their living room all over the planet streaming movies every night and you worry about 2MB every ten minutes? Clearly you failed your math A levels.
Just another example of a person who clearly has no idea what he's talking about. No idea how I missed this idiotic post on my first visit to this thread. You obviously don't even know how nodes work.
No you don't just download the chain and be done with it. A full node does not only download blocks - it also receives and relays unconfirmed transactions and sends out blocks to other SPV clients.
Your node could easily send out terabytes of data in 1 month if you don't restrict it.
Correct. Even nodes with lower upload connections and total number of connections send out a lot of data. In April my node spent ~150GB of data.
lol! Fuck you. I definitely know what I am talking about. 144GB is NOTHING!! You must be a very cheap son of a bitch to complain about this bandwidth since one can buy unlimited for about $100/yr. Your provider is in Zimbabwei so you pay more.
You ONLY have to download the chain once. True, a full node relays shit all day long - but my original claim that you only have to download the chain once is correct. So now who is the fuck wad that doesn't know what they are talking about? That would be you. Moron.
Your node sent out 150GB? That has nothing to do with memory asshole. Read the title of the thread. Now who doesn't know anything. Bandwidth has nothing to do with memory. My claim is the memory is cheap. Bandwidth is also cheap but that is not what the post is about. By the way, you only have to download the blockchain once. Get it dumb-ass? Just because you sent out 150GB last month, your memory requirements didn't go up. that is your bandwidth requirements. How many times did you download the entire blockchain last month? ZERO! That's right, because my first claim was in fact correct. You only have to download the blockchain once. So a full node has some bandwidth issues - OK - great topic go start your own thread. That has nothing to do with the fact that a HUGE blockchain can easily be accommodated on a bunch of cheap memory.
Lauda - you are a fuck wad. When you start telling people they don't know what they are talking about - and then you do change the topic - you are total bullshit. Stick with the topic - memory is cheap, the blockchain can get huge and it doesn't cost much to accommodate it. If you have having trouble with bandwidth - get a better subscription. But don't say I don't know what I am talking about because I know the difference between memory and bandwidth. Fuck off.
