HTC says its next smartphone will run a full Bitcoin node. Shocked

the entire blockchain on your mobile phone? wow. let´s hope they sell a lot of them. good news!
They must have a different concept of a full node. Last time I looked, the block thingy was some 264 GB. Maybe a pruning node?

“The bitcoin blockchain is about 200 [gigabytes], and it’s growing about 60 gigs per year. And those numbers are reasonable to hold on a smartphone. Imagine the iPod with 256 gigs … of course the music fan wants to keep the whole music library but the crypto fan wants to keep the whole bitcoin blockchain.”

sounds like a real full node. somewhat hard to believe.
