So is ETH going to sink to the same levels as once upon a time giants like QuarkCoin, FastCoin and alike?
I mean who wants to wait a week for the block to sync? Who wants to carry 180GB+ of blockchain for a coin that is NOT #1 and will never be #1
Can any of the commonly used ethereum node software still sync the whole chain in a plausible amount of time? I heard it was taking weeks and now all the software is defaulting to "fast sync" which is SPV-like security.So is ETH going to sink to the same levels as once upon a time giants like QuarkCoin, FastCoin and alike?
