We need to be able to calculate pox reward cycle numbers in various areas which cannot be done reliably without knowing the pox constants
first_burnchain_block_height
andreward_cycle_length
. These could be hardcoded for mainnet, but for other networks the only way to determine them is from a stacks-core RPC fetch to/v2/pox
. Ideally these would be emitted from stacks-core in the future.In order to avoid race conditions where the stacks-node RPC may not be available when this service starts, this is implemented as a background job that retries indefinitely.
