This release includes important JSON-RPC stability improvements and compatibility fixes, which make it possible to use Nimbus as a RocketPool operator.
New features:
-
RocketPool integration ready: see rocket-pool/smartnode#89 and rocket-pool/smartnode-install@da720ac
-
Next attestation time displayed on every
Slot end
log message (helps you select the best time for restarting the node) -
libp2p scoring: disconnect from badly performing peers and prioritise peers with better latency and throughput
We've fixed:
-
A rare crash triggered when connecting to a web3 provider using a secure web socket
-
JSON-RPC spec violations (we fixed a bug in the json module used to read eth1 data which could have allowed a malicious eth1 provider to crash Nimbus)
-
Two stale bootstrap node addresses
