fix(bridge): add floor to hunter mode #1304

Closed njgheorghita closed 4 months ago

njgheorghita commented 4 months ago

What was wrong?

Block range prior to 4.200.000 is very well saturated already. I've noticed on my personal "hunter" nodes that they still spend a significant amount of time trying to find un-saturated epochs from this range, so to expedite the hunting process it seems worthwhile to implement a floor to the hunter. This can easily be reversed / undone down the road once 4444s is thoroughly saturated.

How was it fixed?

Skip epochs < 512 in hunter mode.

To-Do

closing this for now since i'm no longer convinced this is necessary to merge into master, and found a more effective strategy that i've just deployed to my personal bridges
