A configurable consensus rule that dictates the maximum possible block size that a node will consider valid. There is currently no limit for this parameter with the limit manually configured for each node.

Node operators set their maximum size based off the risk for making it too large and producing a block on a minority hashpower chain, or the opportunity cost for making it too small and missing out on fees.
