 ## Forest v0.25.3 "Sméagol"
 
 This is a non-mandatory, but highly recommended, release targeting the mainnet node operators. It includes a fix preventing the node from duplicate, costly migrations. Given the upcoming network upgrade state migration is expected to be slow, we recommend upgrading your Forest node before `Mon 14 Apr 23:00:00 UTC 2025`.
