# If running a custom setup i.e. as a system daemon or kubernetes pod, point it to the correct RPC endpoint
RPC_HOST=http://openethereum:8545

does this need to be a publically available address? or is it in the loopback on localhost?

also, what is the intent of the rpc connection?

The RPC exposes the ethereum API, so you can consume it. However in this case, it is only accessible to the internal docker network. Not accessible outside the containers.

what is consuming it?

the ethstats-client?

it appears the github has changed the behaviour of ctrl-enter to submit-and-close. Which I do not agree with :)

Yes. Also any web3 application can consume it.
