BNB Chain urged operators of BSC-Reth nodes to install the v0.1.4-hotfix release, according to Crypto.news. The publication said node operators should also restart their nodes after deploying the update.

BNB Chain’s communication places the immediate deployment work with BSC-Reth node operators, who are being asked to update the software and restart nodes.
