Press Center - ASP of NAND Flash to Continue Falling 3~8% in 3Q23, Only Wafer Prices to Increase, Says TrendForce | TrendForce - Market research, price trend of DRAM, NAND Flash, LEDs, TFT-LCD and green energy, PV

TrendForce predicts that NAND Flash wafers will be the first to see a price hike in 3Q23 as prices for module products such as SSDs, eMMCs, and UFS will likely continue to fall due to tepid downstream demand. Consequently, the overall ASP of NAND Flash is forecast to continue dropping by about 3~8% in 3Q23, though a possibility exists prices may recover in 4Q23.

There are already 2TB SSDs available for less than 80€ and prices are expected to go even lower.

I agree with Artic Mine and believe storage is not going to be a problem for Monero and that the only real bottleneck is upload speed.

What do you think?

    Fair enough.
    My concern is the tendency to build freedom preserving technology in a way that presumes the economic bubble of the last 70 years will continue. Especially considering the geo-political state of the world, and the patterns of history.
    And I am not sure that it will be a sudden and rapid collapse. In fact I doubt it.
    But things are changing, and the economy we have enjoyed due to a post WW2 bubble, is ending. And we dont produce enough of our own stuff. We need to be wise. If i see a production chain from material supply, to end product, that has resilience to shifting geopolitics, Ill ease up on resource efficiency.
