Promote with Leviathan NewsIrys published its biggest update since mainnet, rolling in six months of node and release-process work: uploads keep accepting data under burst load, block validation is about 20% faster, VDF cycles fell from roughly 1,200ms to 970ms, and lagging nodes caught up about 2x faster on testnet. The release adds self-healing peer handling, MDBX/Reth metrics, Tempo/Loki traces, CLI snapshots that bring fresh nodes up in minutes without replaying from genesis, and stricter upgrade/database compatibility checks. The database and ledger changes are also groundwork for term ledgers, Irys’s planned storage tier where data expires after a chosen lifespan instead of being priced as permanent storage.

"Trying to rush a vote is disgraceful" - Ernesto from bgdlabs says he was not notified by Aave Labs before they've unilaterally submitted a proposal with his name on it, which if asked, he would not have approved. He adds that it's not in the ethos of DAO's governance to put up a Snapshot vote while the community is still trying to have an open discussion
