Erigon has now synced to the chain tip on @arbitrum Sepolia! Blazing fast and affordable archive node performance has been achieved on the testnet - Arbitrum One is next! A Nitro-Erigon archive RPC node is 19 times smaller than Nitro's and this is just the beginning!

new patch release: Erigon v3.0.8 "Otterly Odissey" @0xPolygon Pos 🚨Support Heimdall V2 upgrade🚨

As per last week's interop and yesterday's ACDT. We decided to increase the Gas Limit to 45M as agreed with other client teams. I guess 60M will be for another day ;) Also we will add chain-specific limits which we never did because the L1 stayed the same for 4 years.

Erigon Joins the Arbitrum Ecosystem We are proud to announce a new collaboration with Arbitrum. Arbitrum Blog Post: Erigon Press Release:

Join me the 15th May at ETH Zürich! I will give a guest lecture on how Execution layer work paired with a deep-dive into the inner-workings of the Ethereum Protocol, followed by a deep-dive into Erigon. Time: 16.15 PM-17 PM Room: HG D 7.1 Many thanks to @HatforceSec for the opportunity!

All Green Pectra! - ⁠Literary Prague+Electra. We can say this for both sides of Ethereum.

new patch release: Erigon v3.0.3 "Otterly Odissey" Improvements: - consensus: Add syscall failure scenarios ( - consensus: validate fixed lengths in abi decoding EIP-6110 deposit requests - historical receipts persistency (optional) - reduce dependency on github; download snapshot hashes from R2 Bugfixes: - eth, execution: Use block level gas Pool in serial execution - no greedy prune on chain-tip (node did fall behind periodically) - fixed performance and ordering issues with the RPC fix from 3.0.2

new patch release: Erigon v3.0.2 , "Otterly Odissey" 🚨 @gnosischain users 🚨: this is a required update for the upcoming Pectra hardfork scheduled for 30 April 2025 RPC fixes: - Previous versions of Erigon 3 have two bugs regarding handling of state sync events on Polygon chains: Incorrect logIndex on all state sync transaction logs Missing log events when using eth_getLogs with filters A proper fix has been implemented and will be progressively rolled out in Erigon 3.1 and 3.2 (track issue here). A temporary workaround has been introduced if these issues are critical for your use-case. This requires regenerating receipts for all transactions on the chain. The procedure is as follows: 1. Shutdown Erigon and all rpcdaemon processes 2. Update binaries Erigon release 3. erigon seg rm-state-snapshots --domain=receipt --datadir <your-datadir> 4. integration stage_custom_trace --datadir <your-datadir> --chain <amoy|bor-mainnet> --bor.heimdall <heimdall-url> [For machines with many cores, you can add --exec.workers=<num> to improve performance (default is 7)] 5. Once complete, rm -rf <your-datadir>/chaindata 6. Start Erigon

Right now @BNBCHAIN is at WAR with malicious MEV, and it's a brutal fight. That’s why we, along with @ErigonEth & @Nodereal_io, have proposed an encrypted mempool to eliminate malicious MEV on the BNB chain. Learn more:
