Pruning node after full sync #190

Can i enable pruning after full sync?

No, don’t do that. I think fulcrum refuses to run if you do that. The design of the electrum protocol assumes any txn from the blockchain can be retrieved by clients at any time. Even if fulcrum allowed that, it would lead to your server basically being a very bad server for clients.

Ok thanks for the explanation.
