What happens during the 'Fetching the pruning point UTXOs' sync stage when setting up a Kaspa node?

During this stage, your Kaspa node downloads the complete set of UTXOs (unspent transaction outputs) that correspond to the pruning point — essentially a snapshot of which coins exist and who owns them at a specific point in history. You will see log lines reading "[INF] PROT: Received XXX UTXO set chunks so far, totaling in YYY UTXOs" while the download is in progress, and the stage finishes when the log shows "[INF] PROT: Finished receiving the UTXO set. Total UTXOs: ZZZ". The whole stage typically takes about a couple of minutes. Knowing what these log messages mean lets you confirm your node is progressing normally and tells you exactly when this phase is complete so you can move on to the next step with confidence.
