Critical Upgrade for Unichain-Sepolia Nodes

Posted: March 15, 2025 | Effective: March 20, 2025

OP Labs identified a bug affecting OP Stack Sepolia chains (not mainnet), causing temporary L1 fee overcharging.

This issue was fixed in the latest op-node release.

Action Required by March 20!

Please upgrade to:

  • op-node version v1.12.0
  • op-geth version v1.101503.0

If you use the network flag --network=unichain-sepolia, the upgrade activates automatically.

Otherwise, add this to your rollup.json: "pectra_blob_schedule_time": 1742486400

All node and chain operators must update before the Ethereum Pectra activation.
