- we have a new binary which connects via RPC to the respective BN and has an internal clock - waking it up on every slot - the BN has a new option called --external-validators and currently in order to have the VC binaries to run we need to pass EXTERNAL_VALIDATORS=yes to make - factored some code out of beacon_node.nim for easier reuse in validator_api.nim and validator_client.nim - the VC loads its associated private keys from the datadir for its BN - most of the validator API calls have been implemented as a stub. - the VC polls its BN at the start of each epoch - getting a list of all active validators for the current epoch - and then continues to request blocks and sign them with its appropriate validators when necessary
