v3.0.0-alpha6

Breaking change

• --prune.mode default is full. For compatibility with geth and other clients. Plz set explicit
  --prune.mode flag to your Erigon3 setups - to simplify future upgrade/downgrade.

Description of the change

New features:

• Reduced .idx and .efi files size by 25% (require re-sync)
• debian packages
• --externalcl support
• bor-mainnet can work on 32G machine
• Erigon3 book: https://development.erigon-documentation-preview.pages.dev/

Bugfixes:

• eth_syncing works on Bor chains
• support upper-bounds at: eth_accRange #12609 , erigon_getBalanceChangesInBlock #12642, debug_getModifiedAccountsByNumber #12634
• eth_getLogs fix fee cap less than block #12640

v2.61.0-beta1

Description of the change

Improvements:

• Up to date implementation of Pectra network fork specs till pectra-devnet-4 see https://notes.ethereum.org/@ethpandaops/pectra-devnet-4 https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-7600

Full Changelog: v2.60.10...v2.61.0-beta1

v2.60.10

Description of the change

Improvements:

• rpc p95: not reopen files when new created by @AskAlexSharov in #12514

Bugfixes:

• Trace API: commit state changes from InitializeBlockExecution by @yperbasis in #12559. Prior to this PR in callManyTransactions (invoked by trace_block) changes made by InitializeBlockExecution were discarded. That was immaterial before since no much was happening at the beginning of a block. But that changed in Dencun with EIP-4788. Fixes Issues #11871, #12092, #12242, #12432, #12473, and #12525.

Full Changelog: v2.60.9...v2.60.10

v2.60.9

Breaking change:

Release process:

• Switched to go 1.22 while building artifacts
• Docker images now use "debian:12.7-slim" as a base image
• From now onwards only the following three OS/Arch are supported: linux arm64, amd64(v1) and amd64v2
• Artifacts for amd64 architecture are built and delivered with "silkworm" support (https://github.com/erigontech/silkworm)

Description of the change

v3.0.0-alpha5

Breaking changes:

• Format of Merkle Tree was changed
• Format and enumeration of Caplin's snapshots was changed

Improvements:

• Faster time on the tip of the chain
• Less time to download blobs needed
• Fixed crashes introduced by alpha4.

Known problems

• There is still some instability in the RPC

Require re-sync:

This release includes multiple breaking changes, and requires a full resync

Full Changelog: v3.0.0-alpha4...v3.0.0-alpha5

v3.0.0-alpha4

Breaking changes:

• New defaults: --pporf.port=6060 --metrics.port=6061 --diagnostics.addr=localhost:6062. Reason: in Erigon2 these flags used the same port and did conflict.
• Add prefix "v" to git tag, docker tags. Reason: compatibility with Golang's rules (go.mod).
• drop support of golang 1.21

Require re-sync:

• yes (if you need better performance on chain-tip)

Full Changelog: 3.0.0-alpha3...v3.0.0-alpha4

2.60.8

Highlights

This release schedules the Ahmedabad hardfork for the Polygon mainnet and the Gandhinagar hardfork for Amoy. Thus it's mandatory for all Polygon users.

This release also fixes Issue #11936 debug trace RPC error in Polygon Amoy.

2.60.7

Breaking change:

Release process:

Starting this release we're introducing some changes to our release process:

• release version without prefix “v” in a docker tags, released artifacts, git tag, etc.;
• released archives now includes 10 binaries: erigon, downloader, devnet, evm, caplin, diag, integration, rpcdaemon, sentry, txpool;
• released docker image now includes 7 binaries: erigon, integration, diag, sentry, txpool, downloader, rpcdaemon (same binaries as built for released archives just baked to the docker image);
• docker images will be released on Dockerhub repository “erigontech/erigon”. Previous images, released in repository “thorax/erigon” will remain as is. We are not planning to copy old images to the new dockerhub repository.
• multi-platform docker image available for linux/amd64/v2 and linux/arm64 platforms and based on alpine:3.20.2; No need to pull another docker image for another different platform.
• docker images now contains label “org.opencontainers.image.revision” which refer to commit id from the erigon project, used to build artifacts.
• all build flags now passed to the release workflow — so, user can see previously missed build info in our released binaries (as well as in docker images) and also better build optimization expected;
• We are not publishing Windows binaries as it requires some work. We will publish it again once it will work as expected. Meanwhile Windows users can build erigon binaries locally on Windows machines.
