one day ago

This is v1.17.3 of the Smart Node with important client updates and Smart Node improvements.

Client Updates

  • Geth updated to v1.16.3;
  • Besu updated to v25.8.0;
  • Teku updated to v25.9.1;
  • Nimbus updated to v25.9.0;
  • Nethermind updated to v1.33.1 (fixes bug when exiting);

Smart Node Changes

  • Changed the mininum enforced gas for oDAO transactions to 50 gwei. The previous 200 gwei value was too high for the current gas usage and was preventing nodes from submitting when they didn't have enough ETH;
  • Changed Reth parameters to reduce disk space requirements (Thanks Yorick!);
  • Omitting gas prices when estimating. This adjusts the Smart Node for the breaking change on Besu v25.8.0;
  • Added an alert for a low ETH balance in the node wallet. By default, the alert will trigger when the balance goes below 0.05 ETH. Users may disable or change the alert threshold by running rocketpool service config, then selecting "Monitoring/Alerting," changing the "Low ETH balance threshold," saving, and exiting.
  • Hard coded additional event data in preparation for the history expiry moving window.
  • Deprecated the service stats command. Use docker stats -a instead;
  • Updated Go to version 1.25.1;
