Vero v1.3.0-rc.0 includes support for the Fusaka network upgrade on the Holešky and Hoodi testnets!

Holešky node operators must update to this release before the Fusaka fork (epoch 165120, Oct-01-2025 08:48:00 UTC).
Hoodi node operators must update to this release before the Fusaka fork (epoch 50688, Oct-28-2025 18:53:12 UTC).

Further Vero releases are expected once dates are agreed upon for the Chiado testnet, Gnosis Chain and Ethereum Mainnet – this release is incompatible with networks for which the Fulu fork epoch has not been set!

Vero v1.3.0-rc.0 is compatible with the Fusaka-ready client releases listed below. Ensure you are running compatible client versions before updating Vero.
