new RAM model, modern cryptography, and not enough matter in the universe

I remember reading about 6 months ago that some lab (i think it was Bell
Labs) managed to create a RAM chip with the approximate capacity of 500GB
using nano-transistor technology. given that a standard DIMM consists of 16
RAM chips, then that would mean that a single PCB can carry roughly 8TB per
PCB. Wouldn't this mean that a sufficiently large array of nano-RAM could
concievably produce a rainbow table of a 64 byte string that utilises the
entire bit range?
I also read another article recently that was released by a NASA backed
astronomy team stating that there is direct evidence of stellar structures
beyond the visible universe, excluding Dark Matter. Would this not increase
the theoretical maximum amount of matter in the universe substantially? If
so, then wouldn't the phrase "not enough matter in the universe" which is
oft applied to various crypto schemes become not only innacruate, but also
obscelete?
given that there are roughly 3*10^79 hydrogen atoms at the absolute lower
limit, it makes one wonder just how much more hydrogen atoms these newly
observed stellar structures would add.
I seem to have mispaced the article about the nano-RAM, but the article
about the new stellar structures is located here:
