v13.0.2 Highlights:

  • New default RGS (Rapid Gossip Sync) server

We rolled out our own RGS server at rgs.zeusln.com that provides graph updates every 15 minutes instead of every three hours. This should cut down on payment errors caused by stale fees and provide higher payment success rates for LDK users.

  • Improved read from clipboard behavior
  • Improved NFC support
  • UI improvements
  • Bug fixes

Full Changelog: v13.0.1...v13.0.2-rc1

Verifying the Release

In order to verify the release, you'll need to have gpg or gpg2 installed on your system. Once you've obtained a copy (and hopefully verified that as well), you'll first need to import the keys that have signed this release if you haven't done so already: 

gpg --keyserver hkps://keys.openpgp.org --recv-keys 96C225207F2137E278C31CF7AAC48DE8AB8DEE84

Once you have his PGP key you can verify the release (assuming manifest-v13.0.2-rc1.txt and manifest-v13.0.2-rc1.txt.sig are in the current directory) with: 

gpg --verify manifest-v13.0.2-rc1.txt.sig manifest-v13.0.2-rc1.txt

You should see the following if the verification was successful: 

gpg: Signature made Fri May 15 11:35:12 2026 EDT
gpg:                using RSA key 96C225207F2137E278C31CF7AAC48DE8AB8DEE84
gpg:                issuer "zeusln@tutanota.com"
gpg: Good signature from "Zeus LN <zeusln@tutanota.com>"
gpg:                 aka "ZEUS Support <support@zeusln.com>"

That will verify the signature on the main manifest page which ensures integrity and authenticity of the binaries you've downloaded locally. Next, depending on your operating system you should then re-calculate the sha256 sum of the binary, and compare that with the following hashes: 

cat manifest-v13.0.2-rc1.txt

One can use the shasum -a 256 <file name here> tool in order to re-compute the sha256 hash of the target binary for your operating system. The produced hash should be compared with the hashes listed above and they should match exactly.
