Rocket Rescue Node Opens To Solo Stakers
Rescue Node, a fallback node for node operators, is now available for solo stakers. Rescue Node is designed to be an emergency fallback solution during downtime or maintenance. The tool is comprised of a custom reverse-proxy, an API, and a UI for obtaining a consensus client fallback URL. Node operators can use Rescue Node as a fallback when switching clients. The service ensures that duties such as attestations, proposals, and sync committees are performed. To prevent spam, node operators can only request a temporary fallback credential for 10 days at a time, twice times per year.
