Breaking Changes

  • The Development option --Xp2p-minimum-subnet-subscriptions has been removed and will no longer be recognised as a command line option.
  • If running separated Beacon Node and Validator node it is required to upgrade Beacon Node first and then Validator Node. A Validator Node running this release won't start if connecting to an older Beacon Node version.

Known issues

  • When switching an existing database to minimal mode, teku can become unresponsive. It will recover after cleaning up the old blocks, but this can take a period of time (an hour or so). If you wish to switch to minimal mode, consider re-initialising the database (delete beacon db and restart from a checkpoint sync) to avoid an outage.

Additions and Improvements

  • Default storage mode has been changed from prune to minimal. Existing prune mode databases will need to explicitly set --data-storage-mode=minimal if they wish to switch to minimal data storage. Nodes starting with empty database will activate in minimal mode unless a different value is set via--data-storage-mode.
  • Update attestation subnet subscriptions strategy according to the spec changes. All nodes (including non-validating ones) will subscribe to 2 subnets regardless of the number of validators.
  • Added /eth/v1/validator/{pubkey}/voluntary_exit Validator API endpoint
  • Add support for Holesky test network --network=holesky
  • Add support for gzip encoding in REST API

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a bug in network configuration loader which was ignoring MIN_EPOCHS_FOR_BLOCK_REQUESTS parameter.
  • Fixed a bug causing proposer config refresh feature to stop reloading the configuration.
