Snapshot nodes: Backups and fast syncronization
Snapshot nodes enable rapid blockchain synchronization by providing a block state, allowing new or recovering nodes to quickly start with the latest version of the network. This approach significantly reduces sync time and resource usage, making it easier for participants to join or maintain nodes in the Gno.land ecosystem.
