       Are we really at the point technologically where we could run a full node on a phone??https://www.coindesk.com/htc-says-its-next-smartphone-will-run-a-full-bitcoin-node

       @mydogisahusky storage is the main issue, isn't it? Until we have 500 gig storage space on phones...

       @sgtbobbyshaftoe The guys in the article say it is doable.

       @mydogisahusky still, I'm not sure if I would want that.

       @sgtbobbyshaftoe @mydogisahusky There are 512 GByte microSDXC cards. Like this one from Kingston, 134 €.https://www.alternate.de/prod?id=1495181

       @flexbit @sgtbobbyshaftoe Yup - we will see various attempts. Interesting times ahead. I'm an old tech guy and still only own a flip phone circa 2010.Lightning Network will eventually push me over the edge.

       @sgtbobbyshaftoe @mydogisahusky You can run a node with much less storage capacity than that, using pruning mode you can get it down to 10's of GBs instead.

       @htimsxela @sgtbobbyshaftoe Yup - I'm aware. They are claiming full node, unpruned. In the phone.

       @sgtbobbyshaftoe @mydogisahusky no, the main issue is power, since running a full node on a phone will drain your battery very fast... the second issue is bandwidth, which is less stable than on a home connexion and most of the time metered. Then eventually there's cpu power. Storage is the less of concern here
