tempestk on Nostr: This not the best time to bring up, but because of this you can prune a Bitcoin node ...
This not the best time to bring up, but because of this you can prune a Bitcoin node down to about 10 gb afaik. And still be a fully validating node.
In for example Ethereum because they got the wight limits wrong, today it seems a full node can only be pruned down to 800gb and next year it will be over a terabyte. So the maintainers of Bitcoin have done A REALLY GOOD JOB
