ℹ️ This is NOT a mandatory upgrade for validators, but it is highly recommended. There is no coordinated halt or governance proposal — nodes can upgrade at their convenience with a normal binary swap and restart. ⚙️
v6.6.1 is a patch release on top of v6.6.0 🚀. Its primary impact is for RPC node operators, addressing two issues: a 🧵 PebbleDB iterator defect that could result in a stack overflow (#3821), and 📄 LCD pagination, which regressed in v6.6.0 and has been restored while preserving the v6.6 precompile semantics (#3873). This release additionally includes a fix for the static seid SIGSEGV 💥 (pinning a pre-gcc-12 libgcc unwinder), a boot smoke gate 🔬, and release tooling improvements 🧹.
🎯 Who Should Upgrade
| 🖥️ RPC / LCD operators | Strongly recommended — fixes the iterator crash and pagination regression |
| 🛡️ Validators | Optional but recommended — no consensus-breaking changes |
| ⏱️ Downtime | Just a node restart; no coordinated halt |
