## Overview
|
|
|
|
This package implements a concurrency safe block syncing protocol. The
|
|
SyncManager communicates with connected peers to perform an initial block
|
|
download, keep the chain and unconfirmed transaction pool in sync, and announce
|
|
new blocks connected to the chain. Currently the sync manager selects a single
|
|
sync peer that it downloads all blocks from until it is up to date with the
|
|
longest chain the sync peer is aware of.
