+<!-- Ethereum package is meant for strictly development purposes. It is not suitable for production use, and the use of production setup will always be actively discouraged. 
+Please note that all issues related to setting up ethereum package in a production environment e.g:
+- Setup a long running permanent network
+- Exposing services for the public - rpc/beacon/tooling endpoints
+- Syncing external nodes to an already running enclave
+- Running testnet/mainnet validators
+- Any other issues that smell like production use
+Any issues that are related to to the above mentioned topics/related to running kurtosis with ethereum-package in a production like environment will be automatically closed. By opening an issue you agree to these terms.  -->
