Nodes
All nodes are set up and connected to the network using pre-compiled juneogo executable files. In later stages of the project, the juneogo protocol will be open source.
Node types
Depending on its configuration, a node can be of the following types:
Regular Node
This node can access blockchain data and propose transactions through RPC calls. However, it is not a validator of the Juneo Primary Network or any Multi-Chain Networks (MCNs).
API Node
An API Node is the same as a Regular node, however it supports RPC calls from remote machines.
Validator Node
Validator nodes have all of the capabilities of a Regular Node/ API node, but they also participate in the network's consensus mechanism by validating transactions.
Archive Node
An archive node has database pruning disabled for certain chains it is validating, meaning it will have archive data of all historical states of those chains.
A node can be several types simultaneously - an Archive Node for one chain it is validating, but a Validator node for another chain.
