You will see numbers thrown about that with gigabyte blocks a node will cost roughly $20000 a month to run this is out of the budget for most businesses so you will only get large corporations and the miners running them

LOL tek you crack me up. I run a full node for FOUR DOLLARS A MONTH you doofus.  A GB block server is $20k upfront right now and $50/month to host in a good datacenter, in 2 years it'll be  $4k cost for the hardware and hosting will be the same cost.

My server cost's me $50USD a month and is running full nodes for quite a few forked coins with txindexing

It has 32GB RAM and 3TB HDDs in a RAID1 array and new fork coins are taking longer and longer to sync the full chains
Ive been hosting and running dedicated servers for the last 20 years granted in the early days it was just simple illegally File sharing music over FTP before p2p made it easy then I moved to a private torrent site that I spent 100s of hours modifying the code to suit my needs and eventually gave away to a new admin because I had enough that he then run it into the ground because he didn't have the experience to combat attacks and closed it.


That hardly counts as evidence for your outlandish $20,000/mo fantasy.

Ironically his server sounds like it could easily support 256MB blocks or more... and yet, instead he's doing stupid shit like this:



Last week I started collecting ALL mempool dumps every minute that are being automatically uploaded once a day to my google gsuite  account where I have unlimited storage
