The Verydogelabs DRC-20 Indexer is an advanced software tool that enables users to efficiently index DRC-20 tokens using two different modes. It is designed to work seamlessly with the Ord Indexer, providing robust and reliable indexing performance.

This tool operates in two modes:

1. Startup Mode: This mode is optimized for rapid data acquisition from the Ord Indexer. It does not execute the generation of inscription transfers nor does it initiate any DRC-20/Doge-20 indexing tasks.
2. Daemon Mode: This mode allows all tasks to run continuously, ensuring constant indexing.

Here are the recommended steps to use the DRC-20 Indexer:

1. Run the startup mode (DAEMON=false) until the specified startup block is reached.
2. Switch to daemon mode by setting DAEMON=true in the environment variables.
3. Optionally, set SLOW_DOWN_MODE=true to reduce the indexing speed in order to accommodate for any potential blockchain reorganizations.

Here is a list of the environment variables used by the DRC-20 Indexer along with their explanation and example values.
