Release notes eth2.installer beta-3

New Features

  • Prater testnet
    • Connect your nodes installed with eth2.installer to the new testnet called Prater. All clients are able to connect to this new testnet.
  • Teku no-geth setup
    • No need to run your own geth anymore. Select the “no-geth” setup for Teku instead and connect to an external Ethereum 1 node like infura.io.
  • Lighthouse automated portable binary selection
    • When running on older CPUs eth2.installer will automatically select the portable binary which is compatible for older CPUs. If it’s running on a recent CPU then the non-portable version is selected to ensure maximum performance.
  • Voluntary exit of validator(s)
    • Exit a validator voluntarily and therefore stop staking with it without incurring penalties.
    • Supported clients:
      • Lighthouse
      • Prysm
