This release adds support for celestia-app v8 and is safe to run before the migration. Once the v8 activation height takes place, upgrading to this version is required.
Key Highlights
- TLS Support for JSON-RPC (#4839) — Users are encouraged to enable TLS in their RPC clients to secure connections to endpoints.
- Export Prometheus Metrics to OpenTelemetry (#3702) — All telemetry, including libp2p metrics, is now exported via OpenTelemetry. A separate Prometheus instance is no longer required to collect these metrics.
- Shrex server enabled on Bridge Nodes (#4288, #4758) — Bridge nodes can now serve samples over the shrex protocol.
- Improved Bridge Node fresh start (#4768, #4776) — Bridge nodes can now start from non-archival consensus nodes and sync
headers and data from the p2p network. - Full node option removed (#4773) — Full nodes were deprecated 6 months ago; this release finalizes deprecation.
- Headers in subscription responses (#4752)
Header Sync
- Fix syncer tail estimation overshoot (#4840) — The syncer was using nominal 6s block time to estimate tail height, but real block times average ~6.14s. Over the 7-day pruning window this caused the tail to land ~3.8 hours outside the window. Fixed by using 7s as the upper bound.
- go-header v0.8.5-rc (#4841) — Parallel header fetches from trusted peers.
Bridge & DAS
- Fix bridge DASer gossip race (#4820) — Bridge nodes were receiving gossip headers before the local core.Listener finished storing EDS, causing WARN “das requesting data from peer failed” floods. Fixed by adding FanoutOnly mode.
API & State
- Delegation rewards API (#4800) — Added WithdrawDelegatorReward and QueryDelegationRewards to the state module.
Networking & Core
- Verify core endpoint network on startup (#4781) — Prevents misconfiguration by checking the core endpoint belongs to the expected network.
- Fix inverted gRPC connection readiness check (#4793)
