Rocket Pool Team recently announced Quick Saturn update.

Their audit partners are working through verification of all identified fixes. The auditors are making good progress, but this validation process is taking longer than we expected. They are committed to giving them the time needed to ensure the protocol is thoroughly vetted and robust.

Testing has gone well overall. Devnet-5 successfully validated many test cases before Ephemery's reset on 18/12/25 brought that phase to a close. Since they have remaining test cases to cover, they have launched devnet-6 on Hoodi. Those interested in continuing testing can download the devnet-6 smartnode release.

Timeline impact: Their original 19th January target needs adjustment. They require a few extra weeks to complete auditor verification and remaining tests. The new launch target is 9th February.

They recognise the timeline has shifted, and they appreciate our patience. They are in the final stretch—Saturn is nearly ready, and these last steps are critical to ensuring they deliver a secure, production-ready release.
