Pruned version #2

Closed mariocynicys closed 1 year ago

mariocynicys commented 1 year ago

This issue was discussed before in here but ended up not being implemented for the sake of other apps' health.

Making another version of this umbrel-bitcoin might be a wiser solution. Electrs (and other apps that depend on a non-pruned node) can then depend on the non-pruned version and apps that support pruned nodes (like lnd, cln, etc...) can depend on either versions.

Having a node, besides being beneficial for the usage of some apps, is essential for one's sovereignty on the blockchain. And pruning would allow more people to run nodes.

Pruning is now implemented in Umbrel btw
