Title: Electrum server with a pruned node Post by: ziggybtc9 on September 11, 2019, 07:31:03 AM ElectrumX docs mention a non-pruning bitcoin daemon is a must.
https://electrumx.readthedocs.io/en/latest/HOWTO.html#prerequisites Is there a way to run Electrum server (either ElectrumX or another project) on a pruned node?

No, you must be running a full Bitcoin node. Otherwise, it would not make any sense since your or someone else's client would not be able to synchronize transactions older than 2 days (assuming that it was possible to set up and you kept the default pruning settings). Title: Re: Electrum server with a pruned node Post by: nc50lc on September 11, 2019, 08:10:45 AM ElectrumX or any alternative Electrum server projects requires txindex=1 which is impossible for pruned nodes to be able to function as a "server".
Otherwise, it wont be able to query bitcoin transactions from the blockchain. Title: Re: Electrum server with a pruned node Post by: ziggybtc9 on September 11, 2019, 09:35:29 AM Thanks @nc50lc and @BitCryptex, I guess I'll have to find some suitable hardware then.
