What would it take to make core node as fast as the upcoming libbitcoin v4 node?
Discussion
Just skip verifying whatever libbitcoin skips :-)
(no there's plenty of room to make it faster)
I haven't looked deeper yet. Does libbitcoin really skips checks?
Merging both https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30039 and https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31132 for Bitcoin Core v29 would get us there.
