A node can be configured to connect to different Creditcoin networks. Each network has different configurations and use cases.
The network configuration is specified using the --chain flag and the --bootnodes flag, which specifies the initial nodes to connect to.
Creditcoin networks are configured using a ChainSpec. The ChainSpec is a JSON file that defines the initial configuration of the network. To use a ChainSpec, use the --chain flag when starting the node.
Bootnodes are nodes that are always on and can be used to bootstrap new nodes and discover other nodes in the network. To use a bootnode, use the --bootnodes flag when starting the node followed by the bootnode's address.
For a list of available bootnodes, please refer to the Mainnet and Testnet quickstart documents.
