Very interesting. Does it prune along the way during the initial download, or do you need external storage at first?

Because a full node would need both continuous external usb-c storage and continual charging lol

Pruning in #Bitcoin works so that when you setup the size you want your chain to be, let's say for example 5GB. Then it won't use more than ~5GB and constantly deletes oldest blocks when syncing so you won't need any external storage.

Okay sweet. Kind of thought so otherwise would defeat the purpose a bit lol. Thank you!
