This is a medium priority update for Nimbus and Lighthouse users, and a low priority update for Teku and Prysm users.

To upgrade and keep the same network that you have now (either Prater or Mainnet), follow the Smartnode upgrade instructions.

If you want to remove your Prater installation and upgrade to a Mainnet installation, follow the official migration guide.


Installer Changes

  • Updated Lighthouse to v2.1.0.

    • This is a very large update of Lighthouse that includes bug fixes and major performance improvements. Please see the patch notes for a full description.
  • Updated Nimbus to v1.6.0.

    • This reduces the likelihood of missed attestations and has massive performance improvements. Please see the patch notes for a full description.
  • Added a new setting to config.yml called minipoolStakeGasThreshold. This lets you specify a gas threshold for staking new minipools, above which the Smartnode will not submit stake transactions.

    • Previously, the rplClaimGasThreshold variable did this job for both automatic RPL claims and staking new minipools. The latter is now controlled by this variable, so you can adjust the two of them independently.
  • Added more verbose documentation to the parameters in config.yml, so they're easier to understand.

Smartnode Changes

  • rocketpool node rewards will now show you the ETH you've earned on the Beacon Chain as well as your RPL rewards.

Bug Fixes

  • Selecting Prysm as your client will once again bring up the supermajority warning correctly.

    • Thank you to @jshufro for submitting this fix!
  • Geth will now restart into normal operations after trying to prune once, regardless of whether or not the pruning succeeded. This prevents an issue where it got stuck trying to prune forever if it failed.

Misc

  • Updated to Go v1.17.6.
