If this block is in the chain assume that it and its ancestors are valid and potentially skip their script verification (0 to verify all, default: 42145acdde948865d73a8b318fea09b9e9cb826f93007c7a21b4f103822da86d, testnet: e95fc76c6c9016e8ed2e4e4a2641dfc91dbf6bad4df659f664d8f7614bc010c0, devnet: e054229317f002436b1bb67b5e72b442299bcd5bd6cc5740b4ea6c6e5efba583)
-blocknotify=<cmd>
Execute command when the best block changes (%s in cmd is replaced by block hash)

Opt out of staking, zerocoin automint, and Dandelion (default: 0)
-includeconf=<file>
Specify additional configuration file, relative to the -datadir path (only useable from configuration file, not command line)

-maxmempool=<n>
Keep the transaction memory pool below <n> megabytes (default: 300)
-maxorphantx=<n>
