Scheduled

We are upgrading our Berachain Mainnet infrastructure to Bera-Reth v1.4.4.

This release strengthens enforcement of the minimum priority fee across all transaction types, It also carries forward the Osaka1 execution layer hard fork, scheduled for August 5, 2026 at 16:00 UTC.

During the maintenance window, brief interruptions to RPC availability may occur.

RPC Changes:
- Legacy and EIP-2930 transactions submitted with an effective tip below the required minimum priority fee may now be rejected or dropped from the mempool, whereas they were previously accepted regardless of tip paid.
- Once Osaka1 activates, the network will enforce a minimum base fee and minimum blob base fee of 1 gwei each, replacing the prior per-validator tip enforcement. Transactions or blob transactions priced below these floors will not be accepted.
