-Get an eth-sepolia-rpc API key and pass that as an argument. You can get one for free at `alchemy.com`.
 
 Make sure not to use the same home directory for two nodes at once! You can use any name for the home directory: here we just use `home`. The `--` here separates cargo arguments from binary arguments.

 ## Configuring the ETH RPC Provider
 
-By default, a node will use the [hardcoded providers](./kinode/default_providers_mainnet.json) for the network it is booted on. A node can use a WebSockets RPC URL directly, or use another Kinode as a relay point. To adjust the providers a node uses, just create and modify the `.eth_providers` file in the node's home folder (set at boot). See the Kinode Book for more docs, and see the [default providers file here](./kinode/default_providers_mainnet.json) for a template to create `.eth_providers`.

+You may also add a RPC provider or otherwise modify your configuration by sending messages from the terminal to the `eth:distro:sys` process. You can get one for free at `alchemy.com`. Use this message format to add a provider -- this will make your node's performance better when accessing a blockchain:
 ```
 m our@eth:distro:sys '{"AddProvider": {"chain_id": <SOME_CHAIN_ID>, "trusted": true, "provider": {"RpcUrl": "<WS_RPC_URL>"}}}'
 ```
 We will soon add a settings GUI for this.
 
+You can also do the same thing by using the `--rpc` boot flag with an Optimism WebSockets RPC URL.

 ## Distro and Runtime processes
 
 The base OS install comes with certain runtime modules. These are interacted with in the same way as userspace processes, but are deeply ingrained to the system and the APIs they present at their Process IDs are assumed to be available by userspace processes. All of these are identified in the `distro:sys` package.

 The `sys` publisher is not a real node ID, but it's also not a special case value. Packages, whether runtime or userspace, installed from disk when a node bootstraps do not have their package ID or publisher node ID validated. Packages installed (not injected locally, as is done during development) after a node has booted will have their publisher field validated.
