We've removed the deposits table from the database, + which means the client no longer needs to process all deposits on start-up. + +* The Eth1 monitor no longer starts if the beacon node has zero validators attached to it. + +* The genesis detection code is now optional and disabled by default. + +* An RPC call to get Chronos futures at runtime. + +* Eth2 spec gossip parameters. + +**We've fixed:** + +* A database corruption issue affecting Pyrmont nodes. + +* Unnecessary copy/memory alloc when loading DbSeq entries. + +* A block production issue affecting clients that hadn't finished downloading the latest deposits. + + 2020-11-20 v0.6.6 =================
