This release is available as a Docker Image on Docker Hub at offchainlabs/nitro-node:v3.5.0-rc.1-1d9c68d

This Docker image specifies default flags in its entrypoint which should be replicated if you're overriding the entrypoint: /usr/local/bin/nitro --validation.wasm.allowed-wasm-module-roots /home/user/nitro-legacy/machines,/home/user/target/machines

If you're running a validator without a split validation server (this will be true of most validators), you should instead use the image offchainlabs/nitro-node:v3.5.0-rc.1-1d9c68d-validator which has the extra script /usr/local/bin/split-val-entry.sh as the entrypoint.

What's Changed

This Nitro release adds support for Timeboost, a novel transaction ordering policy for Arbitrum chains. This includes changes to both the sequencer to add an express lane for time-advantaged transaction inclusion and a new process for managing the second price, sealed bid auction for the rights to use said express lane.

To read more about how Timeboost works, the goals behind TImeboost, and how to use it, please visit our Gentle Introduction docs here
