 ### To verify  a different block
 You can either start Raiko and run [prove-block.sh](../../../script/prove-block.sh) to get the block you want from certain network and then run the `run-verifier` to prove. Make sure the prover is not in `mock` mode. Finally, you can verify with smart contract test.
