v5.3.0

This release includes support for Pectra activation in the Holesky and Sepolia testnets! The release contains many fixes for Electra that have been found in rigorous testing through devnets in the last few months.

For mainnet, we have a few nice features for you to try:

  • PR #14023 introduces a new file layout structure for storing blobs. Rather than storing all blob root directories in one parent directory, blob root directories are organized in subdirectories by epoch. This should vastly decrease the blob cache warmup time when Prysm is starting. Try this feature with --blob-storage-layout=by-epoch.

Updating to this release is required for Holesky and Sepolia operators and it is recommended for mainnet users as there are a few bug fixes that apply to deneb logic.

Added

  • Added an error field to log Finished building block. [PR]
  • Implemented a new EmptyExecutionPayloadHeader function. [PR]
  • Added proper gas limit check for header from the builder. [PR]
  • Finished building block: Display error only if not nil. [PR]
  • Added light client feature flag check to RPC handlers. PR. [PR]

  • Handle AttesterSlashingElectra everywhere in the codebase. [PR]
  • Add Beacon DB pruning service to prune historical data older than MIN_EPOCHS_FOR_BLOCK_REQUESTS (roughly equivalent to the weak subjectivity period). [PR]
