Abstract— Blockchain technology is increasingly recognized as a transformative innovation that is reshaping how society and individuals interact. Following the invention of the Internet, which broke down communication barriers between countries, blockchain has shifted the concept of trust from centralized third parties to decentralized protocols.
Blockchain technology enables the creation of decentralized ecosystems where transactions can be exchanged securely. Characteristics like persistence, anonymity, and auditability are embedded in the protocol's design.
However, despite the enthusiasm surrounding blockchain, major platforms such as Bitcoin and Ethereum have encountered significant challenges. Bitcoin's blockchain size has reached approximately 250 GB, while Ethereum's is nearing 1 TB. This massive data volume must be replicated across all users who wish to participate in the network.
Currently, no technology exists to effectively reduce the disk space required by blockchain applications. Moreover, there is no lightweight protocol that allows users to securely and privately participate in these networks.
As the world moves toward a future dominated by resource-constrained devices such as smartphones and IoT devices, reducing the disk space required for blockchain is crucial. This advancement is a key factor in enabling the widespread deployment of this groundbreaking technology.
