I think I asked the wrong way, sorry: My question was not really meant at whether it is bug-free (testing that is the purpose of a release candidate, so we of course don't know yet), but rather whether it is at least feature complete now. Remember, the previous v0.11.0 release notes said: > Block pruning is currently incompatible with running a wallet due to the > fact that block data is used for rescanning the wallet and importing keys > or addresses (which require a rescan.) However, running the wallet with > block pruning will be supported in the near future, subject to those > limitations. So I'm interested whether this limitation has been lifted, and the whole feature is considered as finished. If yes, I would highly recommend advertising it in the new release notes - as said, the disk space reduction is a big deal.
