Code & Projects

Hyperledger Besu

  • Besu 20.10.0-RC1 is now available.
    • This is the first release candidate towards our 20.10.0 so there may still be some rough edges. Stability issues have been observed on mainnet and are being worked on. If you want to try the latest and greatest, this has it, but please wait until 20.10.0 to update production nodes._
  • Features include: 
    • Support added for the YOLOv2 ephemeral testnet
    • Added a few debugging APIs: debug_standardTraceBlockToFile and debug_standardTraceBadBlockToFile
    • Added --start-block and --end-block to the blocks import command
    • Added support for multi-tenancy when using the early access feature of onchain privacy group management
    • Fixed a longstanding eth/65 issue
    • Besu is moving to CalVer. Here is a short explanation, and expect a proper blog post soon: Using CalVer for Besu Releases
