📬 Announcement Board

There is an urgent update to the XRPL node in the FDC suite..

The existing suite uses an old version of the node (2.4.0). The newer one uses updated version (2.5.0)

In the FDC deploy suite, just restart the suite with the newest image (the repository is already updated):

~ git pull

~ docker compose up

Tag 1.0.2. Repo as needed below👇🏼

The deadline for this is very tight, as this needs to be completed by- 29.8.2025:14.41 UTC and urge everyone to update ASAP

If you manage your own rippled node, you can disregard the update, but do make sure you are using the up to date version

Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Tom_T · September 1, 2025, 3:13pm

We have an incremental upgrade for both the:

New Flare-Systems-Deployment Release

We have released a new version of the flare-systems-deployment ( GitHub - flare-foundation/flare-systems-deployment at v1.1.0 )

Mostly just incremental changes to all the components. The “big” changes are:

- The c-chain-indexer has been patched fosa bug where it would just drop the full history

- We bumped default gas config for system client to battle the gas spikes that have been recently observed

- We’ve trimmed the config generation of secret values and they are now passed via env instead

Additionally, we also started keeping a CHANGELOG file so it’s easier to be on top of changes (both for us and for you)

To update, you would simply run commands such as:

‘# get new commits’

‘git pull’

‘# repopulate the configs’

‘./populate_config.sh’

‘# recreate containers’

‘docker compose pull && ‘docker compose up -d --force-recreate’

There is another upgrade planned in the next two weeks for some more QOL changes.

Thank you!

New Web2 FDC Attestation Type Addition

Setup Instructions

Set up Web2 verifier:

Pull FDC Suite Deployment repo version v1.2.0: https://github.com/flare-foundation/fdc-suite-deployment/tree/v1.2.0
Set the following parameters in .env (see .env.example):

WEB2_IGNITE_API_KEY=your_ignite_api_key_here

WEB2_SOURCE_IDS=Ignite

VERIFIER_API_KEYS=key1,key23. Run generate-config.sh.

Start the Web2 verifier server: go to web2-verifier/ and run docker compose up -d
(Optional) Specify memory and cpu restrictions in docker-compose.yaml

~For step 2 above, providers will need an Ignite API key. More information on this will be provided in the coming days

Update FDC Client:

Pull FSP Deployment repo version v1.2.0: https://github.com/flare-foundation/flare-systems-deployment/tree/v1.2.0
Set verifier address and API key in .env (see .env.example):

IGNITE_WEB2JSON_URL=http://:9801/verifier/web2/Web2Json/verifyFDC

IGNITE_WEB2JSON_API_KEY=key13

Run populate-config.sh to regenerate FDC Client config
Restart FDC Client: docker compose up -d to pull latest version and re-create

Timeline

-Week of Jan 5 2026 - Web2Json/Ignite attestations enabled on Songbird

-Week starting Jan 12 2026 - Web2Json/Ignite attestations enabled on Flare

An update on exact deployment dates during the weeks outlined above will provided a bit closer to rollout. Please note that not running this Web2 Attestation type once live, will result in missing rewards during some rounds, and depending on how many are missed could result in Entities not meeting Minimal Conditions on FDC

Thank you!

Ignite API Key Info

API keys for the Ignite proxy are now available and are issued separately to each registered data provider. Each key is encrypted with that provider’s signing policy public key and then published as part of a global list. You can find this list and additional setup/decryption instructions here👇🏼

github.com/flare-foundation/verifier-indexer-api

scripts/web2/README.md

# Obtaining Web2Json Ignite Source API Key

API keys for the Ignite proxy are issued separately to each registered data provider.
Each key is encrypted with that provider's signing policy public key and then published as part of a global list at:
- Flare: https://api.ignitemarket.xyz/proxy-api-keys
- Songbird: https://api.ignitemarket.xyz/proxy-api-keys/songbird

The steps below show how to decrypt and obtain your own provider's API key.

## Setup

From the project root run:

```bash
yarn install
```

Create a `.env.decrypt` file in `scripts/web2/` with:

```bash

This file has been truncated. show original

The list will be updated daily allowing newly registered providers to get set up

We are still a go to deploy and begin testing requests this Thursday (8 Jan). Thank you!
