  Light nodes play a crucial role in the transaction verification process of cryptocurrencies. They are lightweight versions of full nodes that don't store the entire blockchain. Instead, they rely on full nodes to provide them with the necessary information to verify transactions. This allows light nodes to participate in the network and validate transactions without the need for extensive computational resources. By using light nodes, the overall transaction verification process becomes more efficient and scalable, as it reduces the burden on full nodes and improves network performance.

  Light nodes are like the MVPs of the transaction verification process in cryptocurrencies. They don't carry the heavyweight of the entire blockchain, but they still contribute significantly to the validation of transactions. Think of them as the fast-trackers who rely on full nodes to provide them with the necessary data to verify transactions. With light nodes in the mix, the transaction verification process becomes faster and more accessible, making cryptocurrencies more user-friendly and efficient.
