So if I changed the bitcoin-core code for eg the code which satoshi made the first block,If I change anything in that code(Like changing the public key) will the peer accept my node for getting rest of the blocks or they will reject. If they reject then how do they know I changed the code

What if Bitcoin devs conspire?
You can see the [tests](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/tree/master/test) directory of the repo. They have a variety of tests and some of these are code linting. Beyond that though, there's actually many implementations of bitcoin core. For example, there's also [bitcoinj](https://github.com/bitcoinj/bitcoinj) which is implemented in Java.

Yes, it's gotten better. I don't recommend pairing with nimbus until this issue gets fixed or prysm until something is done to reduce the amount of time it takes to recover from being offline for a day or more.

Daily Goerli: On Friday, I reported a RocksDB issue that was causing besu to error and exit immediately. The bad commit has been identified and a fix has been issued. lodestar-nethermind somehow ended up on an invalid fork which isn't resolved by restarting either client. Waiting to see how each client team responds and if they need more info, but might need to do a resync.
