Full Node

A computer running Malairte software that validates the entire blockchain independently.

A full node downloads and verifies every block and transaction against the network consensus rules, keeping its own complete copy of the Malairte blockchain. It does not need to trust other participants - it checks everything itself and rejects anything invalid. Full nodes relay valid blocks and transactions to peers, which is what keeps the network decentralised and censorship-resistant. The node software holds no wallet and no keys; it validates the chain rather than custodying coins.
