anyone here tired of paying for signers? gasless signers are live on testnet... https://iris.farcaster.xyz:3381/v1/castById?fid=1108653&hash=0x06104a7fb669123569cebf7c88b21c07cba90688
Excited to announce that we're onboarding our first snapchain validator node from @unooo.eth! Over the coming weeks and months we'll continue adding more validator nodes operated by folks in the /farcaster community. If you're running a node, be sure to upgrade to the latest release, v0.11.5 before February 23. The bootstrap and upgrade scripts should work again btw. https://github.com/farcasterxyz/snapchain/commit/42a8bf071f9bdc48223ccf8fa626952da73b0851
Quick update on this fip. I've spent the past couple weeks improving our observability and stability on the snapchain side so i've only just got back to implementing it. In that time we also added scoping on the message types that a gasless snapchain signer can submit. Scoping and a sliding TTL will help prevent unauthorized and unintended signer use without compromising UX and devX. We borrowed scoping and sliding TTLs vaguely from OAuth so the semantics and language are already familiar in the web dev community. https://github.com/farcasterxyz/protocol/discussions/266
Excited to announce that, with the latest release, both validator and reader snapchain nodes now have a memory footprint of up to 8GB. Default config runs at about 4GB, and all you need to do to get these benefits is pull in the latest release by running your upgrade script Big props to @cassie for figuring out the fix upstream in hypersnap https://github.com/farcasterxyz/snapchain/releases/tag/v0.11.6
