Releases: prysmaticlabs/prysm
v4.0.1
This is a reissuance of v4.0.0 release
This is exactly the same release as v4.0.0, but reissued to solve a checksum cache issue with golang.org's go get proxy server.
See #12201 for more details.
💡 If you are using v4.0.0 then you do not need to upgrade.
v4.0.1
We are releasing v4.0.1 for the upcoming Capella/Shanghai ("Shapella") upgrade!
This release is mandatory for all mainnet Prsym beacon nodes and validators. The release enables Capella upgrade, scheduled on April 12, 2023, 10:27:35pm UTC and epoch 194048. Failure to upgrade will result in your node forking off the chain and the validator losing rewards and getting penalized for being offline.
To recap, you must upgrade your mainnet beacon node and validator client to v4.0.1 before April 12, 2023, 10:27:35pm UTC.
Please have a look below for the changes and detailed change lists.

We are excited to announce a Sepolia Only Testnet release, v3.2.2-rc.0 🎉
This is a Sepolia Only Testnet release. Please only upgrade your Sepolia beacon node and validator to this release before tomorrow's Shanghai Capella hard fork time 2/28/2023, 4:04:48 AM UTC. Please DO NOT use this release on Mainnet or any other testnets. Summary:
- This is a mandatory release for Sepolia testnet
- This is not recommended for everything else, including Mainnet and Goerli

v3.2.1
We are excited to announce the release of Prysm v3.2.1 🎉
This is the first release to support Capella / Shanghai. The Sepolia testnet Capella upgrade time is currently set to 2/28/2023, 4:04:48 AM UTC. The Goerli testnet and Mainnet upgrade times are still yet to be determined. In Summary:
