Release Notes
v1.7.1 includes a hotfix to solve an issue being experienced mostly by users on the Goerli testnet in relation to checkpoint syncing: https://github.com/ChainSafe/lodestar/releases/tag/v1.7.1
If you've been testing Lodestar on a testnet such as Goerli where there are frequently missed blocks, you may have experienced an Unable to fetch weak subjectivity state: Internal Server Error: block not found error while checkpoint syncing. This release addresses this issue and is recommended for upgrade, especially for Goerli users, creating a better testing experience.
Both v1.7.0 and v1.7.1 are Shapella-ready and will upgrade with the network on April 12. If you are not using Lodestar on Goerli, there is no immediate need to upgrade.
