Bor v2.3.0 and Heimdall v0.4.0 release (Rio Hard Fork for VEBloP upgrade)

Hi all, we have released a new beta version of bor, v2.3.0 , and a new version of heimdall, v0.4.0 for Polygon Mainnet.

This release schedules the Rio Hard Fork for Mainnet and includes all the changes required for the VEBloP upgrade.

The Rio Hard Fork on the Mainnet is scheduled for block number 77414656. Which is expected to be mined on Oct-08-2025 at 14:12:00 UTC. Make sure to update all your Mainnet nodes (Bor and Heimdall) before this time.

Steps for upgrading Bor:

  1. Stop bor service

    sudo service bor stop
    
    
  2. Install Bor with a version tag, network name (mainnet), and node type (sentry, validator or archive).

    # Replace the node type
    curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/0xpolygon/install/main/bor.sh | bash -s -- v2.3.0 <network> <node_type>
    
    
  3. Check bor version

    /usr/bin/bor version
    
    # It should print 
    # v2.3.0
    
    
  4. Restart bor service

    sudo service bor start
    
    

Steps for upgrading Heimdall:

  1. Stop heimdalld service

    sudo service heimdalld stop
    
    
  2. Install heimdall with a version tag, network name (mainnet), and node type (sentry or validator).

    # Replace the network and node type
    curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/0xpolygon/install/heimdall-v2/heimdall-v2.sh | bash -s -- v0.4.0 <network> <node_type>
    
    
  3. Check heimdall version

    /usr/bin/heimdalld version
    
    # It should print
    # v0.4.0
