-- HTTP block retrieval support: rainbow can know use trustless http gateways to perform block retrievals, in parallel to bitswap. This takes advantage of peers with HTTP endpoints and provider records of "transport-ipfs-gateway-http" type. You can enable http retrievals with `--http-retrieval-enable`, and limit it to urls of specific hostnames with `--http-retrieval-allowlist <hostname>`. You can also ignore provider records from certain peer IDs with `--routing-ignore-providers <peerID>` (for example to ignore peer IDs from bitswap endpoints of providers that offer HTTP). Note this works in the same way as bitswap: known http-peers will receive optimistic block requests even for content that they are not announcing. See [Boxo's CHANGELOG](https://github.com/ipfs/boxo/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md) for more information.
