    Ok, but i understood that witnesses were running nodes. How come with 50 witnesses we aren't completely covered for both?

      There are three types of nodes (all of which run the same software but in different configurations).

      • Witness
      • Seed
      • Full or Partial Node

      There is also HiveMind that can act as a partial full node and is different than a typical steemd node.

      All three run the witness functionality called consensus
