Topic: Future of cryptocurrency (Read 385 times)
The future of crypto currency is still guaranteed in the future to come, I would not want to stress myself with that but rather how to keep updating myself with updating technologies. This is digital market that is just getting realized, the world is just turning into it. I believe as time goes the nodes, the crypto core as well as the OP and wallet size all will increase to accommodate the growing technology.
This situation with the cryptocurrency repository implies the need to create a project that will eliminate such a problem in ICO.
Solve both of the problems in the OP by running a pruned node, and don't mine blocks. Then you can run your own node, and get all the flexibility and control it gives.
Running a pruned node "solves" the storage issue, but not the bandwidth and time it needs to sync, since it does download the entire blockchain. I'm running little test here and bitcoin-core seems to be using about 2.2gb of data with prune=550 so far (on year 2015)
Thankfully OP can just run a light wallet like Electrum and be done with it...
Hello guys,
Major cryptocurrencies comes with many downsides such as large wallet size (over 190GB), huge cost for mining, etc.
What will be the future of cryptocurrency? If someone invents a new kind of digital currency that won't come with such downsides, what will happen to all existing cryptocurrencies? or do you guys think cryptocurrencies will evolve and remove all of its problems?
I want to know what people will do when Bitcoin's wallet size reach 300GB or bigger.
And how long will it take to reach wallet size that people want to avoid downloading?
You don't need to download Bitcoin core at the moment. Leave it for miners and nodes. Bitcoin will be the king as it always was. If someone finds a better solution, it will be applied at Bitcoin too. Now it's developing in the right way. Scaling problem already solved. So the future of cryptocurrency will be awesome, revolution is coming to our place.

Cryptocurrency it self is a digital currency or cryptography so would any other currency developed under that platform not fall under the idea of cryptocurrency.
There is still room for improvement on the part of cryptocurrency and the future would be better

Cryptocurrency is a successful project that attracts more and more investors every day, so in the future it will be only developing and growing.
At the moment the fintech and cash money offer some better solutions in terms of speed and privacy for most of the people. Probably this is the reason why bitcoin didn't take over the world
Cryptocurrency Have a Prosperous Future. Cryptocurrency Will Replace National Currency futurist and author Thomas Frey, He predicts that cryptocurrencies are going to displace roughly 25% of national currencies by 2030 On Earth. Bitcoin Price Hits $24,000 in Iran as Government Approves Crypto Mining Industry. There Are Top 10 Countries They are Accepted Cryptocurrency. In Future Cryptocurrency Will Be In A Good Position.
Future of the cryptocurrency will be good and it will be long lasting as it is having the good features and specs with the good rewards.
People nowadays are making investment in the cryptocurrency and investors are increasing. It is the long term investment.

At least cryptocurrency will be used as a payment option.
The smallest example: traders from Iran face real problems while making a deposit to forex brokers. here comes crypto! the easiest way to send and receive money without being checked by the authorities.
So, I guess crypto life has just started.

Well let's just patiently wait till the new invention will be dine but for now let's enjoy cryptocurrency for as long as it last which would in my opinion be for a very long time
I agree with @bitcoinnation. The simple solution would be to plug your external disk before running it.
Crypto currency is here to stay. Once more people get familiar with it, and see its use cases, the crypto market will become more stable. Right now it swings wildly both ways (mainly downward trend at the moment).
You are mixing blockchain size with wallet size.
it will prevail i am sure... we have to break away from the traditional system

It's not going to happen,the bitcoin can never be replaced,and of course individuals and groups have been creating cryptocurrencies right before the bitcoin itself,but they all had a short life span Only the bitcoin survived and gave birth to over 2000 coins currently in the market.
There can be no system without a downside,and that of the bitcoin is being worked on daily to reduce it's inimical effect on its growth.
Every or any coin that has and will be created will also have it's downside.
What the bitcoin offers, I doubt any coin can
One of 2 year afther 190 or even 300gb would be nothing and truly said its nothing now ,so dont think its a problem and afther years 300gb would like 300 mb or even kb 300 for users.

As @Bitcoinnation points out, the wallet issue with size you are focusing on is if you are running a full Bitcoin Core none, being the size hazard easily overcome by adding a simple external USB disk as a repository (I use a 3Tb external USB 3.0 disk and it works smoothly). You obviously do not need to run a full node to use a BTC wallet.As for the costs of mining, it depends on the crypto type itself and the underlying algorithm and difficulty established. There are well known cryptos such as Ripple, Cardano, Stellar, Eos and Neo that are premined, and therefore have no mining associated cost.
Just as most things in life cryptocurrency would get better with time and the coming of more advanced cryptocurrency is welcome but to me I think it would be that the already existing coins would develop
