on GitHub

Notes

Nimbus v24.2.0 is a low-urgency upgrade bringing important stability improvements for Deneb-enabled networks. It's highly recommended for users who are testing their setups in the Holešky testnet, which will be transitioned to Deneb on 7th of February.

Improvements

• Nimbus now supports the /eth/v1/beacon/blinded_blocks/{block_id} Beacon API endpoint:
  #5829
  https://ethereum.github.io/beacon-APIs/?urls.primaryName=v2.4.2#/Beacon/getBlindedBlock

• Nimbus now reports more comprehensive information in case of errors while interacting with an external builder:
  #5819

Fixes

• Nimbus was frequently getting out of sync on Deneb-transitioned networks due to a regression introduced in the v24.1.2 release:
  #5834

• The block_sidecar event reported by the Beacon API had incorrect format for the versioned_hash value:
  #5844

• Rare circumstances could cause the Nimbus validator client to permanently lose its connection to the configured beacon node when the two processes had system clock disparities:
  #5827

• Nimbus now uses smaller Builder API validator registration batch size in order to prevent rarely triggered registration timeouts:
  #5837

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
