Full Node

Full Node is a computer that fully enforces all the rules of a cryptocurrency's blockchain network. It downloads and verifies the entire blockchain, ensuring data integrity and security. Full nodes relay transactions to other nodes and help maintain the decentralized nature of the network. By validating blocks and transactions independently, full nodes provide a trustless environment, minimizing reliance on intermediaries. Running a full node contributes to the robustness, privacy, and censorship resistance of the blockchain. While resource-intensive, they are crucial for the network's health and decentralization, ensuring consensus and accuracy.
