## Issue Addressed NA ## Proposed Changes - Caches later blocks than is required by `ETH1_FOLLOW_DISTANCE`. - Adds logging to `warn` if the eth1 cache is insufficiently primed. - Use `max_by_key` instead of `max_by` in `BeaconChain::Eth1Chain` since it's simpler. - Rename `voting_period_start_timestamp` to `voting_target_timestamp` for accuracy. ## Additional Info The reason for eating into the `ETH1_FOLLOW_DISTANCE` and caching blocks that are closer to the head is due to possibility for `SECONDS_PER_ETH1_BLOCK` to be incorrect (as is the case for the Pyrmont testnet on Goerli). If `SECONDS_PER_ETH1_BLOCK` is too short, we'll skip back too far from the head and skip over blocks that would be valid [`is_candidate_block`](https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-specs/blob/v1.0.0/specs/phase0/validator.md#eth1-data) blocks. This was the case on the Pyrmont testnet and resulted in Lighthouse choosing blocks that were about 30 minutes older than is ideal. |

Lighthouse: Ethereum 2.0
An open-source Ethereum 2.0 client, written in Rust and maintained by Sigma Prime.
🚨🚨🚨 Note: Lighthouse is not yet ready to produce mainnet deposits. The developers will require some time to test against the mainnet deposit contract, once it is released. DO NOT SUBMIT VALIDATOR DEPOSITS WITH LIGHTHOUSE. 🚨🚨🚨
Overview
Lighthouse is:
- Fully open-source, licensed under Apache 2.0.
- Security-focused. Fuzzing has begun and security reviews are underway.
- Built in Rust, a modern language providing unique safety guarantees and excellent performance (comparable to C++).
- Funded by various organisations, including Sigma Prime, the Ethereum Foundation, ConsenSys and private individuals.
- Actively involved in the specification and security analysis of the Ethereum 2.0 specification.
Like all Ethereum 2.0 clients, Lighthouse is a work-in-progress.
Eth2 Deposit Contract
The Lighthouse team acknowledges
0x00000000219ab540356cBB839Cbe05303d7705Fa
as the canonical Eth2 deposit contract address.
Development Status
Current development overview:
- Specification
v1.0.0implemented, optimized and passing test vectors. - Rust-native libp2p with Gossipsub and Discv5.
- RESTful JSON API via HTTP server.
- Events via WebSocket.
- Metrics via Prometheus.
Roadmap
April 2019: Inital single-client testnets.September 2019: Inter-operability with other Ethereum 2.0 clients.Q1 2020:lighthouse-0.1.0release: All major phase 0 features implemented.Q2 2020: Public, multi-client testnet with user-facing functionality.Q2 2020: Third-party security review.Q4 2020: Long-lived, multi-client Beacon Chain testnet- Q4 2020: Additional third-party security reviews.
- Q4 2020: Production Beacon Chain (tentative).
