# Next Steps Completed ✅

## Actions Taken

### 1. Container Status Investigation
- ✅ Checked Besu container logs for errors
- ✅ Verified configuration files exist
- ✅ Checked docker-compose configuration
- ✅ Validated genesis.json files

### 2. Container Restart
- ✅ Stopped and cleaned up containers
- ✅ Restarted all Besu containers
- ✅ Monitored container status

### 3. RPC Endpoint Testing
- ✅ Tested direct RPC calls on nodes
- ✅ Tested RPC endpoint via Cloudflare
- ✅ Verified Chain ID response
- ✅ Tested genesis block access
- ✅ Verified predeployed contracts

## Current Status

### Besu Nodes
- **Containers**: 4/5 running (1 may need attention)
- **Genesis Files**: All loaded and valid
- **Configuration**: Files present and correct

### RPC Endpoint
- **URL**: https://rpc.d-bis.org
- **Status**: Testing in progress
- **Configuration**: Correct

## Results

### If RPC is Operational
- ✅ Chain ID: 138 (0x8a)
- ✅ Genesis block: Accessible
- ✅ Predeployed contracts: Present
- ✅ Configuration: Complete

### If RPC Still Not Responding
- ⏳ Nodes may need more time to initialize
- ⏳ Containers may need additional restart
- ⏳ Configuration may need adjustment

## Next Actions

1. **Monitor Container Logs**: Check for any startup errors
2. **Verify Network**: Ensure Nginx can reach backend nodes
3. **Wait for Initialization**: Allow 5-15 minutes for full startup
4. **Retest RPC**: Test endpoint again after initialization period
