I've been studying Bitcoin anatomy, and I'm particularly interested in the Bitcoin network's exceptional privacy and decentralization. I'm curious to learn if there are any other benefits to being a node on the bitcoin network for confirming transactions.

I'm quite aware that bitcoin transaction is been made and confirm in this manner:

[A] Transaction is signed in the wallet the rightful owner.

[B.] The wallet broadcasted the transaction to the memory pool.

[C] Miners chooses the transaction to be process from the pool ( due to difference in fee that comes with every transactions).

[D] Miners find the Nonce that complete the hash output after which the miners is eligible to take the fee and block reward.

[E] Nodes will verify the transaction and add the new block to the existing blockchain history.

[A]  >>  [B.] >>  [C]   >> [D]  >>  [E]

And in other to be a node, ones device must be up 24/7 with available internet and stable power, it doesn't appear to be like a mining but can be tasking to some that's why I want to know if there are more incentives I don't know.
