Hello EVM GW operators,

If you are running a testnet or mainnet Flow EVM Gateway (GW) node, please upgrade it to the following docker tags:

1. If you have enabled using soft-finality on the EVM GW by adding the `--experimental-soft-finality-enabled=true` tag, then upgrade to docker tag _ **`v1.1.1-experimental.0`** _.

2. If you have not enabled soft-finality, then upgrade to _ **`v1.1.1`** _.

If you build the images from source instead of using the docker images, then please build the image from this release tag: [Release v1.1.1 · onflow/flow-evm-gateway · GitHub](https://github.com/onflow/flow-evm-gateway/releases/tag/v1.1.1).

This update introduces the Ethereum Pectra update.

No update is needed for any other Flow node type.

Thank you,  
Flow Team
