In Taqueria, we can start the Flextesa sandbox in protocol Alpha with identifier: ProtoALphaALphaALphaALphaALphaALphaALphaALphaDdp3zK.

Is it possible to accept this as a valid protocol? I understand that there might be features in protocol Alpha that are not yet implemented in TzKt, but we can let the user accept that risk and run their own TzKt instance?

Yes, you can try to use a handler of a different protocol, but keep in mind that the indexer will simply stop working should it see anything new, like a new operation type, or a new Michelson primitive, etc.

@Groxan Yes. That's a risk someone has to accept when using protocol alpha with several tools that each might only implemented parts (or none) of it.
