Gavin Andresen has developed a new block propagation algorithm able to compress the block down to 1/10th of the size of a Compact Block (Core's technology) using bloom filters called GRAPHENE. 10 times larger blocks, no size increase! 1mb --> 10mb, 8mb ---> 80mb, etc. https://people.cs.umass.edu/%7Egbiss/graphene.pdf 181 comments btc
