While doing that i am most drawn to [Reth](https://github.com/paradigmxyz/reth) hopefully i will be able to clear some issues on the repo. ### Reading list - [Inevitable Ethereum](https://inevitableeth.com/site/content): wiki kind of content convering many basic and advanced research topics - [Ethereum Design Rationale](https://web.archive.org/web/20211121044757/https://ethereumbuilders.gitbooks.io/guide/content/en/design_rationale.html) covers design principles of Ethereum - [Nodes and clients](https://ethereum.org/en/developers/docs/nodes-and-clients/#clients) - [Reth Docs](https://github.com/paradigmxyz/reth/tree/main/docs)
