The block chain is the main innovation of Bitcoin. It is the
first distributed timestamping system.

I don't see how pruning can be bad... Developments of pruning would be immediately discarded the moment it became destructive for the blockchain/the Bitcoin environment.

I think that you can not (yet) run wallet with pruning but according the release notes also it should be possible in the near future.

Can the developpers push the wallet mode (SPV ?) in pruning mode ... work ? I have a 46,5 Go blockchain folder ... and my limit is 50 Go for ... Bitcoin (1/3 of my SSD).  |

Pruning will probably be compatible with wallet features in near future. For now, it's not compatible. You can have Bitcoin Core on your SSD and you database on a HDD. You lose snappiness but you have more space for the ever growing blockchain |

Can someone post a link or explain the cons and pros of running a pruned node?
I have not found such information.
What are the implications in running a pruned node for the Bitcoin network?

You can read about pruning here. Unfortunately there isn't much discussion about this, as far as I know (probably because not many people use pruning yet...). if there are some discussions about this new feature and it's future I'd also like to know! |

You will not be able to see transaction history inside pruned blocks, as you will only have a record of UTXO (Unspent Transaction Output). On top of that enebling pruning will disable bitcoin core from using a wallet. It is sad that this will be fixed in the future.

I believe people don't care about pruning that much as the blozksize bebate draws lots of attention. It will become more popular as soon as the block size issue gets resolved(which, according to my estimations won't, at least in the short-mid term.) |

I partly disagree. People do generally care about pruning, and have been talking for quite some time about it, but it's just pretty much a "beta" feature at this time and not really usable with anything, and that's what puts people off. You can't be a node and you can't run a wallet with pruning on. So, for most people, why prune? Might as well leave Bitcoin Core off. The block size is indeed part of the problem, and it will get worse if/when we switch to 8MB blocks and we start getting them filled. Or maybe not  Hard drive space will get bigger and cheaper... And when we have full 8MB blocks we will probably have most issues related to pruning solved  |

I have read that entirely but I wanted something more like a debate, user's test results, etc... |
