Agenda

• Static vs. Dynamic

• Components

• Workflow

Static State Sync

• Nodes must stop processing blocks during state sync.

• Blocks continue arriving from the network but cannot be applied.

• Creates delays and inefficiencies.

• Network continues advancing while node is stuck syncing.

Dynamic State Sync

• Blocks arrive and are queued during sync (not ignored).

• Sync target updates dynamically, enabling jumps in block height as network advances.

• Blocks are deferred until state is ready.

• After finalization, blocks are processed in batches against finalized state.
