I'm assuming you're talking about csvdump
and not unspentcsvdump
. It would probably take twice or more space (just a wild guess) because a csv dump is in ASCII and the blockchain itself is stored as binary
as of 2-3 jan 2018, till blocks 502388.
blocks-0-502388 = 117 MB transactions-0-502388.csv = 37 GB tx_out-0-502388.csv = 117 GB tx_in-0-502388.csv = 236 GB
490 GB as of Oct 2018
csvdump until block 639273 is about 730 GiB. unspentcsvdump should be about 8-9GiB.
Adding to the documentation, but will need to be updated regularly to keep up with the blockchain growing. I recommend we close this Issue @gcarq
Agree, this should be added to the documentation. Closing this
The bitcoin blockchain is about 145GB. I was just wondering how much space I need to have in addition to that.
