- Testing on-going
Testing
Hive
- Tried to run generated tests, but Hive doesn’t support Gnosis. Need to adjust to make it compatible. Probably a Genesis issue
Ethereum/tests
- Ethereum/tests
- No updates, not yet merged
Client updates
EL
Nethermind
-
Spent time on Holesky recovery, Chiado all good, pending testing results. One issue, which may not affect Chiado. Asked input to Gnosis devops about CPU info.
-
Reviewing Pectra post audit, but nothing important found yet
-
Working on history expiry
Erigon
- New release 3.0.0-rc.3 small fix for syncing from scratch post-pectra. One small issue in RPC for estimateGas.
Geth
- No updates, not ready yet for Pectra.
Reth
-
Made compatible with Chiado, synced up until Cancun stopping before Pectra. Stuck on a post-execution issue.
-
Second mainnet sync on-going
-
Attempt to be ready by Pectra
CL
- PR to baked in Chiado, didn’t make it on time for the fork. But for the mainnet release they will be released
Pectra
-
Fork date on Ethereum is unclear at the moment.
-
Geth network share appears negligible at the moment.
-
We commit to schedule Gnosis date whenever Ethereum schedules, choosing a date that’s a few days earlier. Temptative date of April 1st is dropped.
-
DAppNode packages ownership: we should claim ownership of those
- Nethermind: In their CI already
- Erigon: Gnosis should CI it
- Geth: Gnosis should CI it
- Reth: Gnosis should CI it
- Lighthouse: Gnosis should CI it
- Teku: ?, maybe Gnosis should CI it
- Nimbus: ?, wrapping the release anyway. Gnosis should CI it
- Lodestar: In their CI, Nico owns it
Research
- History expiry in Chiado: activation date?
- Geth may not be ready, but we will keep at least one node able to serve history.
- Reth already starts from merge state, need to look into support
