the size of the block chain is ever expanding, by the year 2100 i predict it will be over 1 terabyte, making bitcoin unmanageable for ordinary people who want to run a node. which means we will have to trust our bitcoins to some third party intermediary at some point in the future. do you see this as a problem or no?
By 2100, 1TB will be a pretty small amount of memory.
The issue isn't even memory, but storage - hdd, ssd etc. (My portable, which isn't new, has a 4TB ssd for reference.)
Danny is right though, this thread should be locked because it is premised on nonsense.
