The
nano::deserialize_block
already properly handles the case where deserialized block type isblock_type::not_a_block
or invalid, however it triggers a debug assertion for those cases. This is not necessary, since this is a normal condition that happens during normal node operation (eg. during bootstrapping). It also makes it impossible to run a debug node build on the live network.
