This is a question for people smarter than me Smiley

I have never read the bitcoin whitepaper but I do know that wallet syncing takes forever.

My question is if something like maidsafe (Or another decentralized storage method within a coin) can hold the blockchain and make it not necessary for everyone to download the blockchain in full (Maybe in part to verify bits). There are people with large storage capacities that wouldn't mind holding the blockchain when it gets more bloated. The bloat might be a deterrent for some basic users.
