allow custom configs in Gnosis binary (#4134)
When running as Gnosis-chain binary the config was no longer adjustable.
Restores loading custom configs when running as Gnosis-chain binary,
as long as the following keys remain same:
- SLOTS_PER_EPOCH=16
- SECONDS_PER_SLOT=5
- BASE_REWARD_FACTOR=25
- EPOCHS_PER_SYNC_COMMITTEE_PERIOD=512

This allows running the Gnosis-chain binary on custom test networks.

Networking

This folders hold a collection of modules to:

  • configure the Eth2 P2P network
  • discover, connect, and maintain quality Eth2 peers

Data received is handed other to the ../gossip_processing modules for validation.

Security concerns

  • Collusion: part of the peer selection must be kept random. This avoids peers bringing all their friends and colluding against a beacon node.
  • Denial-of-service: The beacon node must provide ways to handle burst of data that may come:
    • from malicious nodes trying to DOS us
    • from long periods of non-finality, creating lots of forks, attestations, forks
