Daily Goerli: I've been testing this PR for besu for the past several days, and the stability of nimbus-besu has improved substantially. Looking forward to it getting merged into main.

Yes, it's gotten better. I don't recommend pairing with nimbus until this issue gets fixed or prysm until something is done to reduce the amount of time it takes to recover from being offline for a day or more.

Daily Goerli: On Friday, I reported a RocksDB issue that was causing besu to error and exit immediately. The bad commit has been identified and a fix has been issued. lodestar-nethermind somehow ended up on an invalid fork which isn't resolved by restarting either client. Waiting to see how each client team responds and if they need more info, but might need to do a resync.

.NET 8 Standalone 50% Smaller On Linux
41% of EVM nodes on Ethereum run .NET on Linux via Nethermind(https://github.com/NethermindEth/nethermind).
Ethereum has a Market Cap of $249Bn and $34bn of other assets in smart contracts.
So you could say .NET on Linux has under management $116Bn and handles $800m of asset transfers per day, napkin math

Nethermind v1.20.0-RC released today I'll probably wait for the final release before upgrading on mainnet, but I've already been enjoying the massively improved logging on Goerli.

Happy with Nethermind, reinstalled and was offline for only 10 epochs
I've been concerned that my Nethermind docker container has been taking too much disk (1.13 TB), so I decided to delete it and start again, specially because the new versions (https://github.com/NethermindEth/nethermind/releases) say they are storage saving options.
- Nethermind v1.19.0 released! Significant storage reduction.
