github rocket-pool/smartnode-install v1.4.2

latest releases: v1.13.9-dev, v1.13.8, v1.13.8-dev...
2 years ago

This is a very high priority update for all users.

This update brings versions of all three execution clients that have support for the Gray Glacier hardfork.

Docker Mode users must upgrade to v1.4.2 before June 29th.
Hybrid and Native Mode users must upgrade their Execution clients to one of the versions listed below before June 29th.
❗ If you do not update in time, your Execution client will be following the wrong chain fork and you will have to resync it!


⚠️ NOTE: Light clients (Infura and Pocket) are now DEPRECATED because the upcoming Ethereum Merge is NOT COMPATIBLE with them. You will be required to run a full Execution client after the merge, and the light clients will be removed in a future version of the Smartnode accordingly.

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


Client Updates

New Features

  • Voting support: the command rocketpool node set-voting-delegate can be used to specify an Ethereum address you would like represent your node when voting on Rocket Pool DAO governance proposals.

    • This should be something you can safely use with a browser.
    • A full write-up of DAO voting, Snapshot, and this command will be released soon.
    • rocketpool node status will now show which address you use to represent your node during votes.
  • rocketpool wallet restore now has the --wallet-index and --address flags.

    • Use --wallet-index to specify the index (slot) in the derivation path for the wallet you want to restore, if it's not the default of zero.
    • Use --address to restore a wallet that you have the mnemonic for and know the address for, but don't know the derivation path or wallet index. The Smartnode will brute-force search through its list of well-known derivation paths to attempt to find it for you.
    • rocketpool wallet init and rocketpool wallet test-mnemonic now support --wallet-index as well.
  • Removed JSON-RPC logs from Nethermind to reduce clutter

Misc Changes

  • Updated to Go language v1.18.3.
