This is part of @pugachAG 's Better Engineering effort to make code base more manageable and easy to develop. So far, these two PRs are related:
It will be followed by removal of mock epoch manager
We deployed a number of new features to statelessnet but unfortunately the chain suffered tremendously due to bugs. We decided to shut down the chain as maintaining it on unstable code was consuming too much developers' time. We are going to continue development and testing on dedicated test networks. We may resume statelessnet once we've gained more confidence in it.
Moving the task to 'Ready to be prioritized' from 'WIP' as we are pausing StatelessNet
