Notes

Nimbus v24.1.1 is a hotfix addressing a problem introduced in the v24.1.0 release. Nimbus was crashing immediately after being connected to an execution layer node which is not fully synced. All users of v24.1.0 are advised to upgrade at their earliest convenience.

Nimbus v24.1.0 was a low-urgency upgrade bringing full support for the upcoming Cancun-Deneb hard-fork on the Goerli testnet and introducing the /eth/v3/validator/blocks/{slot} Beacon API end-point that greatly simplifies the implementation of profit-optimising validator clients.

Improvements

• Nimbus now includes the latest Goerli-Prater metadata, scheduling the Cancun-Deneb hard-fork:
  #5680

• The Nimbus beacon node now supports the /eth/v3/validator/blocks/{slot} Beacon API end-point:
  #5474
  https://ethereum.github.io/beacon-APIs/?urls.primaryName=dev#/Validator/produceBlockV3

• Nimbus now accepts POST requests to the /eth/v1/beacon/states/{state_id}/validators and /eth/v1/beacon/states/{state_id}/validator_balances Beacon API end-points:
  #5632
  ethereum/beacon-APIs#367

• Nimbus now follows the latest specification regarding the deprecated /eth/v1/validator/blinded_blocks/{slot} Beacon API end-point:
  #5639

• Nimbus now uses the latest set of bootstrap nodes for the Gnosis chain:
  #5656

Fixes

• Nimbus was sending unnecessary redundant forkChoiceUpdated notifications to the execution layer:
  #5635

• Nimbus was returning incorrect responses on requests for blocks at empty slots when working with ERA files:
  #5641

• The Nimbus validator client was not sending Builder API registration messages at the correct time:
  #5663

• Nimbus was ignoring a specified --jwt-secret option when no --el option was provided and the default localhost URL was being used:
  #5671
  #5665

Breaking Changes

• Machine consumers of Nimbus logs should be updated, as the abbreviated value of the NOTICE log level has been renamed from NOT to NTC:
  #5634

Urgency guidelines

low-urgency: update at your own convenience, sometime within our normal update cycle of two weeks

medium-urgency: may contain an important stability fix, it is better to update sooner rather than later

high-urgency: update as soon as you can, this is a critical update required for Nimbus to function correctly
