Scheduled

Blockdaemon will update all Westend, Kusama and Polkadot nodes to v1.10.0 as well as Sidecar API to v18.0.0 on 04/22/24. We are updating our nodes due to a release from the Parity foundation. This update applies to all Blockdaemon Westend, Kusama and Polkadot nodes. There will be planned downtime of up to 5 minutes per node.

Please be aware of the breaking change that Sidecar API v18.0.0 introduces;

- feat!: add in-transit XCM msgs in blocks endpoint (#1412) (6028086)
NOTE: This PR introduces breaking changes in the blocks endpoint when decoded XCM messages are enabled

We have tested the release and do not anticipate any unexpected downtime other than mentioned above as a result of the update. If you have any questions or concerns please reach out to your Customer Success Manager.
