Smartnode Release v1.9.7 - Prysm and Teku Updates
2 projects | /r/rocketpool | 22 Jun 2023

Prysm's debug image for v4.0.6 (which Rocket Pool requires due to it having a Linux shell) claims to contain the v4.0.5 binaries. The Prysm team has been notified but is not in a position to redeploy the Docker image with the correct version at this time. Due to this, we have created our own Docker image for Prysm v4.0.6 which uses the correct binaries from their release page (https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/releases/tag/v4.0.6).
