Hatafat dam brit instead of circumcision?

Hey, this is probably a weird question, but here goes nothing: I‘m an atheist (technically agnostic) Jew from a country where circumcision is rare, and never got one (nor a bar mitzvah). I have been thinking more about my Jewish identity recently and might be curious about some exploration, but I am definitely not looking to do a proper brit milah. Which (if any) changes to my halachic status would be caused by doing a Hatafat dam brit only? I know this is basically on an honor system anyway, but would that change anything when it comes to any religious rights or obligations?
