Shapella August 1st!
The Shapella hard-fork is upon us ~ August 1st, 2023 at Epoch: 648704 / Slot: 10379264 / 11:34:20 UTC! This major milestone marks a significant step forward in the evolution of Gnosis Chain. Most notably, Shapella enables withdrawals for staked GNO.
Node runners, please schedule time now to update your nodes if you haven't already - it’s critical for ensuring the security of Gnosis Chain and a successful hard-fork! The process can be completed within a few clicks. The Shapella hard-fork only requires node runners to update their Consensus and Execution Layer clients.
We are pleased to announce that all client updates are ready for the upcoming Shapella hard-fork! 🫡
Epoch: 648704
Slot: 10379264
Time: August 1, 2023 at 11:34:20 UTC!
Please schedule time between now and July 30th to update your nodes!
