Title: What do P and F in the serverlist mean?
Post by: somedood on April 03, 2013, 02:38:34 AM
I looked around for a while but could not find any info on this. Figured it would be faster asking here than looking inside the source code :)

F - server storing full blockchain. If you restore your seed while connected to such server, you will see your entire transaction history.
P - Server storing only unspent outputs. Restoring from seed while connected to such server will only reveal amount of BTC you have, but not where and when did you get them.

Thank you. I was suspecting something like that while reading about purging. Thanks for confirming.
