Sequencer should run init-chain with only a genesis state and no other inputs #1348

Open SuperFluffy opened 3 months ago

The Sequencer ABCI consensus service is currently passing in a chain ID and initial validator set in addition to the genesis state.

The genesis state should be a closed collection of settings needed to initialize a new chain without extra external input.

the chain ID and initial validator set are from the genesis file and passed in to the app in the request::InitChain, the genesis state is the initial additional application state. there's no reason why we should disregard parameters passed in the InitiChain request.
