The DNS blocklist is centrally managed by Monero contributors. It is **not recommended** unless in emergency situations. | `--fluffy-blocks` | Relay compact blocks. Default. Compact block is just a header and a list of transaction IDs. | `--no-fluffy-blocks` | Relay classic full blocks. Classic block contains all transactions.
