### Using a Wallet

Copy/paste your node's ".onion" URL, as well as your RPC username and password (located in config), into any compatible wallet.

## Pruning

Pruning is a process by which your node discards old blocks and transactions after it verifies them. Pruned nodes and archival nodes are both "full nodes" in that they are fully validating; they validate every block and transaction. Archival nodes store the entire blockchain and are useful to people interested in doing general or historical analysis or being a provider of blockchain data to others.

Pruned nodes and archival nodes are both "full nodes" in that they are fully validating - they validate every block and transaction. Archival nodes store the entire blockchain and are useful to people interested in doing general or historical analysis, or being a provider of blockchain data to others (eg. a blockexplorer).

The target of pruning on your Embassy is configurable and set by default to the minimum of 550MB (0.55 GB!), meaning the resulting blockchain will occupy a negligible amount of storage space. The maximum amount of blockchain data you can retain depends on the storage capacity your device. The config menu will not permit you to select a target that excedes a certain percentage of your device's available capacity.

The config menu will not permit you to select a target that exceeds a certain percentage of your device's available capacity.

For most use cases, we recommend sticking with a very low pruning setting.
