The effect of a reduced block warehouse on the Ethereum protocol and bitcoin

The Bitcoin protocol depends on the decentralized storage of blockchain data to ensure safety, transparency and decentralization. Full nodes protect each block created in their memory, which can be a large burden, especially since the entire history of the network is stored.

However, there is an alternative approach: reduced block storage. If only nodes held the blocks they care about, the Bitcoin protocol would probably experience some changes and Ethereum would be more useful and replaced with architecture. Let’s dive into the consequences of both networks.

Protocol Protocol Bitcoin

In this scenario, each node protects only blocks with which it is directly connected or interested. This can lead to several changes:

1

  • The nodes will only need to save important data to reduce the amount of data necessary for processing.

  • Improved network performance : reduced block storage can cause faster approval of work time, as the nodes do not wait long for the blocks to be viewed.

However, this approach is also worrying:

1

  • Network congestion : A networked network can be overwhelmed, resulting in slower work time and increased taxes.

Ethereum potential benefits

Unlike Bitcoin, Ethereum has decentralized architecture with fewer knots needed for consistent and safe experience:

A reduced Ethereum block storage is likely to determine:

  • Improved Performance : The protocol would become more effective, allowing faster work time and better user experience.

2.

  • Improved security

    : reduced storage of block reduces the surface of the attack, which makes it difficult for malicious actors to compromise the network.

Conclusion

By reducing the Bitcoin and Ethereum Block warehouse, it would cause various consequences:

The reduced storage of Bitcoin blocks can lead to lower work fees and improved scales, but also increases the safety risk and potential congestion.

Ethereum decentralized architecture with reduced storage block would increase its performance and scaling with safety functions. However, this approach may require further improvement of the state channel and other optimization to maintain a safe and effective network.

future research directions

To thoroughly explore the effects of a reduced block warehouse on Bitcoin and Ethereum:

  • Node optimization : more efficient node software that can reduce the use of the disk.
