Incident
Resolved
Mar 15, 2026Resolved: elevated attestation miss rate
Between 14:22 and 16:05 UTC, a subset of operators experienced elevated attestation miss rates due to a peer connectivity issue on the beacon layer. The issue was isolated and resolved. Affected operators were contacted directly.
General
Feb 20, 2026CIP-7002 exit request path supported
The vault contract supports the CIP-7002 execution-layer exit-request path, enabling treasury-side validator exit initiation through the vault without requiring operator signing-key custody. Coverage on a given seat depends on its contract version and configuration — for an authoritative per-seat answer, consult the explorer or the program team.
