People are too broke to buy a $100 1 tb ssd from best buy but have $2,500 laying around to buy an ASIC from the one KYC Chinese Manufacturer.
Monero's Big Fat Problem is when blockchain exists, and that blockchain generates data.
People can't hecking afford the cheap memory that typically scales drastically, and becomes cheaper with more memory as technology innovates.
Let's says even in the most extreme case that Monero becomes an unimaginable data hog we could utilize torrent technology where other computers could preserve portion of the blockchain, and cross reference one another.
Additionally compression protocols could be built, or other currencies like Filecoin could be utilized to incentive memory storage for nodes.
Ultimately speaking, any breakthrough in Memory technology will be a financial interest to The Monero community, and in theory a company like let's say Seagate could become The Next Nvidia, which would only enrich humanity with better memory capabilities.
