The source’s best block as of the most recent bestTip() call.

let remoteTip: BlockTip

Discussion

Not monotonic within a sync run: the sync engine re-polls the source each time tip.height catches up to remoteTip.height, and if the source has advanced, remoteTip jumps forward. During the initial BlockchainSync.Update.State.preparing emission — before the first bestTip() call succeeds — remoteTip is a placeholder with height == 0.
