ETH bridge: where to add the new ETH full nodes? #246

Open coesensbert opened 1 year ago

coesensbert commented 1 year ago

We have some ETH full nodes ready to be used by our bridge. When we launched the ETH bridge we only had one, now we have 3 extra. For the BSC bridge, these nodes are listed in a config.toml file located in the bridge pod at /storage. This file is not there for the ETH bridge so the question is where should we add these so the bridge can use them?

The BSC bridge uses a light client instance to connect to. This light client then connects to the full nodes. The Ethereum bridge deployment has no light client since light clients are no longer supported by the Ethereum protocol.

Support multiple Ethereum node connections in the bridge: #252
