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 DAG. The sync manager selects a single sync peer that it downloads all blocks from until it is up to date with the the peer's selected tip.
