// Package initialsync is run by the beacon node when the local chain is
// behind the network's longest chain. Initial sync works as follows:
// The node requests for the slot number of the most recent finalized block.
// The node then builds from the most recent finalized block by requesting for subsequent
// blocks by slot number. Once the service detects that the local chain is caught up with
// the network, the service hands over control to the regular sync service.
// Note: The behavior of initialsync will likely change as the specification changes.
// The most significant and highly probable change will be determining where to sync from.
// The beacon chain may sync from a block in the pasts X months in order to combat long-range attacks
// (see here: https://github.com/ethereum/wiki/wiki/Proof-of-Stake-FAQs#what-is-weak-subjectivity)
