One of the key scalability challenges with public cryptocurrency blockchains is that their size grows linearly with the number of transactions. Mature blockchains such as Bitcoin and Ethereum contain >170GB and >1 TB of historical data respectively.

The number of full nodes is a key measure of decentralization, and difficulty becoming a full node translates into future centralization.
