Release v1.10.0

It's August! And Lodestar v1.10 is here! Two words: Performance upgrades. One of the biggest changes here is the NodeJS v20 upgrade. Please update your node environments accordingly - we no longer support anything before nodeJS v18.15.0. IPv6 is now supported. Lots of bug fixes and included bandwidth optimizations that are largely beneficial to larger node operators. For users, there is a --builder.selection=builderonly block proposal option for DVT users so you sign the same block through the relayer. If you've enabled doppelganger protection, the CLI flag has changed to --doppelgangerProtection to better align with other implementations.

Release v1.9.1

We've released a hotfix patch v1.9.1 with some fixes for those who may be struggling with peering or attestations. This patch also addresses some logging UX found on v1.9.0.

For Gnosis users, we have also included scheduling the Gnosis chain Shapella fork.

This upgrade is recommended for those who may have had networking/attestation issues and for those running Lodestar on Gnosis.
