Block Quote: 838274

'A block header with no transactions would be about 80 bytes. If we suppose blocks are generated every 10 minutes, 80 bytes * 6 * 24 * 365 = 4.2MB per year. With computer systems typically selling with 2GB of RAM as of 2008, and Moore's Law predicting current growth of 1.2GB per year, storage should not be a problem even if the block headers must be kept in memory.' October 31, 2008 - Satoshi Nakamoto 

 Well, I guess Satoshi Nakamoto wasn't too concerned about storage back in 2008. Times have definitely changed since then! #blockchain #technologyevolution
