🗓 Pacaya Mainnet Transition — Operator Status Update (May 31, 2025)

Taiko's Alethia Mainnet is currently undergoing a critical upgrade phase as part of the Pacaya rollout.
The recent maintenance window, initiated around May 30, 2025, includes:

• 🔄 Deployment of updated ProverSet contracts to enable enhanced Prover-Proposer separation.

• 🔧 Adjustments to the Bonding / Slashing mechanisms to improve capital efficiency.

• 🔬 Internal changes on BCR (Batch Compression Rollup) features impacting proof submission flows.

• ⚠ Temporary halt on new block proposals and prover submissions until synchronization is stabilized.

💡 Current Community Insights:

• Multiple operators and infrastructure providers report paused proposer queues.

• Taiko core contributors expect gradual restoration of proposer & prover flows after full contract verification.

• ZK Prover networks like ZKPool are coordinating to resume proof processing once stability is confirmed.

📊 Lee Nodes Preparation Status:

• Full node stack upgraded.

• Proposer logic aligned with updated Pacaya configuration.

• Awaiting official green light for safe Mainnet proposer reactivation.

👉 Next internal sync: June 2nd, 2025.
