Scheduled

Flow will undergo the Forte Network Upgrade on October 22, 2025. We do not expect downtime as a result of the upgrade. However, if any critical follow-on updates are released before or after the event, minor interruptions may occur as nodes synchronize to the upgraded network state.

Summary of Key Enhancements
• Introduces network-wide optimizations as part of the Forte upgrade.
• Improves validator performance and consensus efficiency.
• Enhances scalability and developer tooling across the Flow ecosystem.
• Implements protocol refinements to support the next phase of network growth.
