[shesek]

eznode is a docker-based single-container setup for a personal bitcoin node, featuring:

• Bitcoin Core - Pruned by default with optional trusted fast-sync
• Electrum Server - Personal Electrum server powered by BWT
• BTC RPC Explorer - Personal block explorer and node dashboard
• Specter Desktop - Wallet GUI for hardware and multi-sig setups
• Secure remote access using Tor Onion, SSH tunnels or SSL

Why eznode?

• Simple one command setup
• Lightweight (120 MB docker image)
• Pruning-friendly (requires <5GB of storage)
• Suitable for a dedicated box, but doesn't require one
• Supports Linux, macOS, Windows and ARMv7/v8
• Secure transports out-of-the-box

Quickstart for a pruned node with a block explorer and a personal electrum server tracking your <xpub>, available over a Tor Onion service:

Code:

docker run -it --rm --name ez -v ~/eznode:/data eznode/eznode TOR=1 XPUB=<xpub>

eznode can use https://prunednode.today to do a trusted fast-sync from a recent snapshot instead of syncing from scratch. This is optional and disabled off by default.

See more details here: https://ezno.de/packages#fast-sync

Edit: Reading your question again, I think I might've misunderstood it. Were you asking about pruning or about the fast-sync feature? Regarding pruning, eznode is pruned by default with prune=550.
