We recommend all users to upgrade to v1.0.3, especially if they're experiencing timeouts with their eth1 endpoint.

Please note

Users may see a new log message:

Nov 30 21:04:28.268 WARN Syncing eth1 block cache   est_blocks_remaining: initializing deposits, msg: sync can take longer when using remote eth1 nodes, service: slot_notifier

This log indicates that your beacon node is downloading blocks and deposits from your eth1 node. When the est_blocks_remaining is initializing_deposits, your node is downloading deposit logs. It may stay in this stage for several minutes. Once the deposits logs are finished downloading, the est_blocks_remaining value will start decreasing.

It is perfectly normal to see this log when starting a node for the first time or after being off for more than several minutes.

If this log continues appearing sporadically during operation, there may be an issue with your eth1 endpoint.

Summary

  • Increasing timeouts and decreases payload size for log request from eth1 nodes.
  • Reduces the impact of timeouts when they do occur.
  • Logs information about eth1 syncing whilst users are waiting for genesis.
  • Adds the lighthouse bn --private flag which zeros-out graffiti and does not publish client information in the identify protocol.

All Changes

  • Improve eth1 block sync (#2008)
  • No string in slog (#2017)
  • Update PGP key in README (#1986)
