Nimbus v23.1.1

[zahary]

Dear node runners,

We have a new (point) release out!

Nimbus v23.1.0 was a low-urgency upgrade, introducing support for on-the-fly database pruning making the storage requirements of Nimbus much more predictable on long-term time scales. When pruning is enabled, a typical beacon node expected to consume around 60 to 70 GB of storage. To take advantage of the new functionality without facing any downtime, users are advised to sync a fresh node through trusted node sync which now features a quicker history backfilling implementation.

See the full release notes for more:

Nimbus v23.1.1 is a high-urgency hotfix for users who have already enabled block history pruning after upgrading to v23.1.0. It fixes an issue where the client may fail to start after the database has been pruned.

Happy Staking!
