Hey Lodestar users! We're happy to release our v1.35.0 release which includes performance refactors and enhancements! This upgrade is recommended for all mainnet and testnet users.

For node operators, we now support dual stack IPv4 and IPv6 by default serving port 9000. If no listenAddress is specified then we will enable both IPv4 and IPv6. If you want to reconfigure the listening addresses or explictly enable one stack, you can manually set it for IPv4 only with listenAddress or for IPv6 only with listenAddress6.

This release also supports the Fusaka hard fork on all planned testnets for Holesky, Sepolia and Hoodi. Note that any v1.35.0-rc.X versions are still compatible for the Fusaka testnet forks, but we now recommend using the stable release.
