2022-03-12 v22.4.0
2022-05-17 v22.5.0
==================
Nimbus `v22.5.0` is a `low-urgency` maintenance release. It implements the proposer boosting fork-choice policy and is compliant with the latest [Bellatrix specifications](https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs#bellatrix-also-known-as-the-merge). It also provides an early preview of our built-in support for [BLS threshold signatures](https://notes.ethereum.org/@djrtwo/blst-rfp) (via regular Web3Signer instances): this marks the first step of our long-term [secret-shared validators roadmap](https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/issues/3416) which enables node operators / staking pools to deploy Nimbus in secure high availability setups (guaranteeing ~100% uptime).
### Improvements:
* A safer fork-choice algorithm which implements the proposer boosting policy
https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/2353
https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/3565
* A completely revamped snappy implementation which brings significant speed-ups
https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/3564
* Support for the latest Bellatrix specifications (a.k.a. The Merge) + all Kiln testnets
https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/3590
* An initial preview release fеaturing built-in support for distributed keystores, (part of our [secret shared validators roadmap]( https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/issues/3416))
https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/3616
* Reduced CPU usage when serving blocks to other syncing clients
https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/3598
* A more spec-compliant implementation of the `/eth/v1/config/spec` REST end-point (implementing the v1.1.10 version of the spec)
https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/3614
* Improved compatibility with all versions of Web3Signer
https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/3640
### We've fixed:
* The potential for missed block proposals in the case where an invalid deposit is submitted to the deposit contract
https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/3607
https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/3639
* A crash triggered by the use of Web3Signer remote keystores
https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/3616
* A rare crash triggered when Nimbus is performing a large number of concurrent HTTP requests
https://github.com/status-im/nim-chronos/pull/272
https://github.com/status-im/nim-chronos/pull/273
2022-04-12 v22.4.0
==================
Nimbus `v22.4.0` is a `low-urgency` upgrade which brings with it further optimisations, and better user experience around [trusted node sync](https://nimbus.guide/trusted-node-sync.html). It lays the foundations for upcoming the merge hard-fork which will be fully supported in our next release (`v22.5.0`).
