Actions

Every three minutes, the bot checks the latest block and takes note of the CVNs that didn't sign it. After 5 missing blocks in a row, it sends a notification to the CVN operators group in Telegram. If a node has been down for 12 hours, it sends a reminder. When a node is back up, it also notifies the group.
