Gateway modes

The gateway can be used to propagate blockchain data (ETH, BSC, and Polygon networks) or flashbots bundles (ETH network). There are two Gateway modes - bdn and flashbots. The Gateway can run in flashbots, bdn, or both.

In flashbots mode, the Gateway accepts blxr_submit_bundle requests.

In bdn mode, the Gateway also receives blockchain data (such as transactions and blocks) from the BDN.
