Odaily Planet Daily News: Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin responded to state storage issues on the X platform, stating that the core problem with current state proof solutions is the need to store and continuously update data used for verifying proofs, and the scale of this data is ultimately almost as large as the entire on-chain state. Although some feasible solutions exist, they all contain a large number of complex components and require varying degrees of trade-offs compared to the current Ethereum architecture.
