 # Release Notes
 
 
+## v0.27.7 (March 24, 2026)
+
+**Title:** Steadier sync and leaner storage
+
+**Date:** March 24, 2026
+
+**Version:** v0.27.7
+
+Hi folks! Here’s what we shipped in v0.27.7.
+
+### ✨ What's New
+
+- **Configurable network ID:** Connecting to the right Cardano network is more rock-solid because you can now set the network identifier in configuration.
+- **Optional blob-store compression:** Disk usage can be lower because you can now enable compression for blob storage in some environments.
+- **Devnet transaction pump:** Testing transaction flow is easier because development networks now include an additional transaction pump service.
+
+### 💪 Improvements
+
+- **More stable chain following:** Sync is more rock-solid because chain following and recovery is now more stable during tip changes and temporary peer issues.
+- **Safer rollbacks and replay:** Reorg handling is more predictable because rollback and ledger replay behavior is now safer.
+- **Lighter rewind pruning:** Larger cleanups are smoother because rewind and pruning operations now put less pressure on storage backends.
+- **Stickier best-peer selection:** Peer churn can be lower because peer selection now better preserves stable connections when multiple peers report equivalent tips.
+
+### 🔧 Fixes
+
+- **More consistent blob deletion:** Cleanup is more reliable because blob deletion now better matches transaction behavior.
+- **Graceful missing-blob recovery:** Processing is more resilient because missing blob data is now handled more gracefully in some cases.
+
+### 📋 What You Need to Know
+
+- **Multi-network deployments:** If you run against different Cardano networks, review your config to ensure the correct network is selected.
+- **Docker builds:** If you rely on custom Docker build caching, Docker builds may behave differently.
+- **Tooling refreshes:** Routine updates to build tooling and libraries may land as part of keeping the project secure and compatible.

+## v0.27.5 (March 19, 2026)
+
+**Title:** Faster UTxO lookups and steadier sync
+
+**Date:** March 19, 2026
+
+**Version:** v0.27.5
+
+Hi folks! Here’s what we shipped in v0.27.5.
+
+### ✨ What's New
+
+- **Stable UTxO ordering and address queries:** Wallet and explorer-style queries are more predictable because you can now query UTxOs with a stable ordering and look them up efficiently by address.
+- **Observability-only chain-sync clients:** Metrics are clearer because you can now run observability-only chain-sync clients that are counted in metrics without affecting normal client operation.
+- **Automatic chain realignment on startup:** Recoveries after interruptions are easier because ledger startup can now realign chain state automatically without noisy side effects.
+
+### 💪 Improvements
+
+- **More consistent rollback scheduling:** Recovery after chain reorganizations is more reliable because rollback handling now keeps scheduling state more consistent.
+- **Sliding-window chain density:** Chain health signals are more representative because chain density calculations now use a sliding window of recent slots and blocks.
+- **Safer raw block copy resume:** Resuming raw/direct block copying is safer because resume checks are now stricter and reduce accidental skipping or duplication.
+- **Smoother peer governance convergence:** Early runtime is steadier because peer governance now converges faster after startup and follows configuration defaults more consistently.
+- **Better default peer targets:** Peer configuration works out of the box more often because Dingo now falls back to Cardano P2P peer target values when Dingo peer targets aren’t set.
+- **Richer UTxO RPC chain references:** Downstream indexing is easier because UTxO RPC responses now include a more complete reference to chain position.
+- **Clearer stake snapshot errors (SQLite):** Operational debugging is easier because stake snapshot maintenance errors now include clearer context.
+- **Dependency refresh:** Builds are more rock-solid because dependencies were refreshed to keep compatibility and security posture current.
+- **Clearer tests and documentation:** Maintenance is easier because tests and documentation were clarified for long-term readability.
+
+### 🔧 Fixes
+
+- **Resilient ledger block processing:** The node is less likely to go down on transient ledger errors because block processing now restarts on non-fatal errors instead of exiting.
+- **Safer block fetch flushing:** Block downloads recover more cleanly after flush failures because block fetch now cleans up state when flushing pending blocks fails.
+
+### 📋 What You Need to Know
+
+- **Client-count metrics may shift:** Capacity planning may look different because observability-only chain-sync clients are now tracked separately from eligible clients.
+
