You're still enforcing the rules of the network, you're still transacting without middlemen as a full node.\n\nArchival just means you're helping more with bootstrapping new nodes. Like bittorrent, as long as there are enough full seeds, each additional one has diminishing returns.\n\nThere's a weird idea that seemsbto be proliferating that everyone needs the whole chain. It's a silly one. You do need to validate the whole chain but you don't need to keep it.\n\nI for one am looking forward to Florestad, a pruned full node using utreexo that runs on mobile. It's available for Signet already."}
