Modes
-----
Elements supports a few different pre-set chains for syncing. Note though some are intended for QA and debugging only:
* Liquid mode: `elementsd -chain=liquidv1` (syncs with Liquid network)
* Bitcoin mainnet mode: `elementsd -chain=main` (not intended to be run for commerce)
* Bitcoin testnet mode: `elementsd -chain=testnet3`
* Bitcoin regtest mode: `elementsd -chain=regtest`
