  # Release 26.31: Unified Pricing & Subscriptions

  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/bitflyexplorergmbh/X8gI6d9fW-QfnFd3/images/changelog/v26_31_0/release_26_31.jpg?fit=max&auto=format&n=X8gI6d9fW-QfnFd3&q=85&s=42c5d2d73de1730901e2588eb20b257d" alt="Release 26.31" width="2560" height="1440" data-path="images/changelog/v26_31_0/release_26_31.jpg" />

  Our latest release brings a single pricing page, a subscriptions overview, a new ETH.STORE® endpoint, and a withdrawal-estimate fix:

  * **One pricing page** — API and Monitoring plans now live together on [pricing](https://beaconcha.in/pricing) with a product switcher; the old API and Premium pricing links redirect there with the right product preselected.
  * **Your subscriptions in one place** — A new [Subscriptions](https://beaconcha.in/user/subscriptions) page lists your API and Monitoring subscriptions with direct access to billing management.
  * **Accurate next-withdrawal estimates** — Queued withdrawal requests are now included in the next-withdrawal estimate on [validator](https://beaconcha.in/validators) pages and the [dashboard](https://beaconcha.in/dashboard), which previously showed a near-zero amount for a validator with a large request already queued.
  * **ETH.STORE® as a daily time series** — The new [ETH.STORE](/api-reference/ethereum/eth-store) endpoint returns the network-wide daily staking yield as a paginated series with 7-day and 31-day moving averages.
  * **Adding exited validators to a dashboard works again** — Adding validators by deposit address no longer fails outright when one of them has already exited, on the [dashboard](https://beaconcha.in/dashboard).
  * **Validator index on the deposits page** — The [deposits](https://beaconcha.in/validators/deposits) table now shows each deposit's validator index, so you no longer have to open a deposit to find it.
  * **ether.fi in the staking services directory** — [Staking services](https://beaconcha.in/stakingServices) now lists ether.fi alongside the other liquid-staking providers.
  * **Machine metrics API works again** — The [machine metrics](/api-reference/machine-metrics) endpoints returned an error instead of your monitoring data. They now serve it again, with correct "last seen" timestamps and correct ordering and paging for machines whose exporter reported time in milliseconds.
  * **Mobile fix** — The landing page's API cards no longer overflow the page padding on narrow screens.

  # Release 26.30: New API Endpoints & Income Report Fixes

  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/bitflyexplorergmbh/93nFKShjWr255S_y/images/changelog/v26_30_0/release_26_30.jpg?fit=max&auto=format&n=93nFKShjWr255S_y&q=85&s=9237aa79751d428259e2f2fa97313037" alt="Release 26.30" width="2560" height="1440" data-path="images/changelog/v26_30_0/release_26_30.jpg" />

  Our latest release brings new API endpoints, income report accuracy fixes, and validator data corrections:

  * **New API endpoints** — [Epoch overview](/api-reference/ethereum/epoch), [slot deposits](/api-reference/ethereum/slot/deposits), and [validator lifecycle states](/api-reference/ethereum/state/validator-statuses) are now available, alongside newly-published docs for the [deposits](/api-reference/ethereum/validators/deposit-slots) and [withdrawals](/api-reference/ethereum/validators/withdrawal-slots) endpoints.
  * **Income report accuracy** — System deposits/withdrawals (protocol-internal balance movements) no longer count toward payouts or income, and networks with Electra active from genesis no longer double-count deposits, in the [income report](https://beaconcha.in/monitoring/income-report). Both CSV exports are now versioned so external tools can detect format changes.
  * **Validator data corrections** — Fixed a cross-chain cache bug that could show one chain's validator key on another chain's same-numbered validator, corrected contract categorization on block overview/rewards/withdrawals pages, and fixed incorrect checkpoint reporting on the network state endpoint.
  * **Faster custom date-range queries** — Rewards and network views over a custom date range load faster thanks to smarter query planning.
  * **Protocol-generated deposits are now typed `system`** — The deposit type previously returned as `network` is now `system`, matching the wording used for [system deposits and withdrawals](/faqs/system-deposits-and-withdrawals) ([slot deposits](/api-reference/ethereum/slot/deposits)).
  * **Correct sender on direct deposits** — Deposits sent straight to the deposit contract now report the depositing address instead of an empty one ([slot deposits](/api-reference/ethereum/slot/deposits)).
  * **Queued deposits and withdrawals clarified** — The [deposit](/api-reference/ethereum/validators/deposit-slots) and [withdrawal](/api-reference/ethereum/validators/withdrawal-slots) endpoints now explain that entries still waiting in the queue have no per-slot detail yet, and how to filter for the ones that do.

  # Release 26.29: Validator Page Refresh & MEV Guides

  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/bitflyexplorergmbh/syp9bwbZJ121pCVx/images/changelog/v26_29_0/release_26_29.jpg?fit=max&auto=format&n=syp9bwbZJ121pCVx&q=85&s=545c62f26378da9cb360df50121c7cbe" alt="Release 26.29" width="2560" height="1440" data-path="images/changelog/v26_29_0/release_26_29.jpg" />

  Our latest release brings a validator-page refresh, a one-click income report, and new MEV guides:

  * **Validator page refresh** — Cleaner heading labels on [validator](https://beaconcha.in/validators) pages, a new BeaconScore percentile badge ("Top X%"), and — on mobile — the edit, follow, and API-links actions tucked into a single menu.
  * **One-click Income Report** — A "Generate Income Report" button on the [validator](https://beaconcha.in/validators) page takes you straight to a tax-grade [income report](https://beaconcha.in/monitoring/income-report) pre-filled with that validator.
  * **MEV analysis guides** — New how-to guides for MEV timing analysis: an [introduction](/use-cases/mev-analysis-introduction), plus walkthroughs for [comparing timing across entities](/use-cases/compare-mev-timing) and [investigating a block](/use-cases/investigate-mev-block).
  * **Dashboard updates instantly** — The validator summary now refreshes right after you add or remove validators, instead of showing stale rows for up to \~15 seconds; the add-validator search also accepts a trailing comma.
  * **Faster slot pages** — [Slot](https://beaconcha.in/slots) pages load noticeably faster, and the Transactions tab on busy blocks now loads in pages instead of resolving every transaction up front.
  * **Mobile fixes** — Recent-slots cards no longer overlap on the landing page, and the Expert-mode Daily Income chart legend no longer swallows the plot on phones.
</Update>

  Our latest release brings the income report and navigation polish:

  * **Validator income & tax report** — New [income report](https://beaconcha.in/monitoring/income-report) with time-weighted APR and a tax-grade CSV export of your validators' rewards, priced in your fiat currency; non-premium users can explore a demo with sample data.
  * **Redesigned Daily Income chart** — The [validator](https://beaconcha.in/validators) page's Daily Income chart is rebuilt with Simple, Advanced, and Expert detail levels, a per-component reward breakdown, clearer missed-reward bands, and an expandable full-history view — with the header income figures and chart now guaranteed to agree.
  * **Explorer menu refined** — The [Explorer](https://beaconcha.in/explorer) menu's Network Overview now has labelled Chain and Validators sections, and Relays and Entities join the Staking Hub.

  Our latest release brings a new API, a redesigned navigation, a tools gateway, and MEV polish:

  * **MEV timing games API** — Five new endpoints expose relay bid ladders and timing-game outcomes for blocks, entities, validators, and the whole network ([docs](/mev-timing-games/introduction)), now linked from the API pill on every page that shows the same data.
  * **Redesigned navigation** — New mega menus with gateway cards and a restructured [Explorer](https://beaconcha.in/explorer) menu (Staking Hub, Network Overview, Performance), plus a rebuilt mobile menu.
  * **Tools Hub** — A new [tools gateway page](https://beaconcha.in/tools) presenting every explorer tool in one place, with a spotlight carousel.
  * **Explorer landing page redesign** — The [explorer](https://beaconcha.in/explorer) landing page is rebuilt on the new design system, with reworked slot and epoch cards, a validator-status breakdown, and network-vitals tiles.
  * **System deposits & withdrawals** — New [explainer](/faqs/system-deposits-and-withdrawals) covering protocol-internal balance movements that are re-queued as pending deposits.
  * **MEV timing accuracy** — On the [entities](https://beaconcha.in/entities) pages, a day that has not finished aggregating now shows an "Unknown" badge instead of a misleading "No MEV".
  * **Entity & MEV polish** — Touch-device treemap tooltips with a working "View details" link, plus mobile tab cutoff, card alignment, a colored MEV median with vs-average delta, and MEV sub-tab deep-linking on [validator](https://beaconcha.in/validators) pages.
  * **Withdrawal & consolidation status** — On the [dashboard](https://beaconcha.in/dashboard), completed execution-layer withdrawal and consolidation requests now show the correct processed status instead of staying stuck on "queued".

  * **Withdrawal slots API** — New endpoint returns all slots in which a validator received a withdrawal sweep payment.
  * **Currency switch fix** — Switching the display currency now immediately reloads server-rendered values (balances, income cards, charts, tables). Previously required a manual page refresh.

  Our latest release brings several fixes:

  * **Slots reward accuracy** — The burned base fee is now correctly subtracted from EL proposer rewards for non-MEV blocks on the slots list. Values were previously overstated by baseFee × gasUsed.
  * **Exit queue 404 fixed** — An empty validator exit queue no longer returns a 404 error.
  * **Exit queue estimate accuracy** — Estimated withdrawal queue epochs are accurate again (were up to \~11.6 hours too early due to a missing MAX() aggregate).
  * **Mobile pricing table** — Row backgrounds now paint across all columns when scrolling horizontally on mobile.

  * **Validator lifecycle** — The lifecycle timeline gains a Withdrawn step. "Consolidation in progress" now surfaces in the overview card and is suppressed when the latest request is rejected. EL consolidation, withdrawal, and exit tables show a Status column with consensus-layer rejection reasons.
  * **Post-Pectra deposits** — Post-Pectra CL deposit events are now included on validator and address pages, so deposits submitted after Pectra are no longer missing.
  * **Cookie consent unified** — A single consent choice now covers both v1 and v2 pages.
  * **Bug fixes** — Withdrawals chart values corrected (was 10⁹ too small), non-default currency on withdrawals page fixed, contact form 404 resolved, and more.

  * **Validator chart deep links** — Sub-tabs on validator pages (#income, #proposals, #beaconscore) are now bookmarkable URLs that update as you navigate.
  * **Validator self-reporting** — Validators can now claim their entity tag directly via the API, making it easier for staking operators to associate validators with their organisation.
  * **Mobile slot visualization** — Slot category icons now render correctly on mobile without needing to open the filter panel first.
  * **CL reward pending status** — Slot and block pages now show "Pending (waiting for epoch finality)" instead of a blank dash for proposer rewards that haven't been processed yet.
  * **Withdrawal sweep timestamps** — Corrected the staking queue estimation timestamps (slot time was being computed as epoch time, inflating values by 32×).
  * **Copy & UI polish** — 13 text and copy fixes across the site (EIP-1559, Rocket Pool, footer, and more), BeaconScore® button spacing fixed, card rounded corners no longer clipped.

  # V1 → V2 API Migration Guide

  Still on our V1 API? V2 is worth the switch:

  * All new features ship on V2 only.
  * Query by index, pubkey, deposit address, withdrawal address, entity, or dashboard.
  * Cursor-based pagination for cleaner data flows.

  # Website Redesign and Navigation Update

  We redesigned the website and reorganized the main navigation around a search-first landing page and four primary sections: [API](https://beaconcha.in/api), Monitoring, [Explorer](https://beaconcha.in/explorer), and Resources.

  The new landing page puts search first so you can find chain entities faster, while still giving you a quick overview of our core products at [beaconcha.in](https://beaconcha.in).

  Technical endpoints and documentation now live under the [API menu](https://beaconcha.in/api). Dashboards and notification settings are grouped under [Monitoring](https://beaconcha.in/monitoring/dashboard/). Chain data such as epochs, validators, slots, and blocks now sits under the [Explorer menu](https://beaconcha.in/explorer), while tools like GasNow have moved under Resources.

  # New v2 API Endpoints for Network and Validator Insights

  We added new v2 API endpoints focused on three areas: Entity Performance, Network Insights, and Validator Duty History.

  These updates make it easier to monitor staking entities, query network-level data for blocks, slots, sync committees, and validator metadata, and review validator duty history across attestations, proposals, and sync committees.

  # Validator Queue Dashboard

  We've added a new [Validator Queue Dashboard](https://beaconcha.in/validators/queues) that gives you real-time visibility into Ethereum's validator queues.

  Track the Deposit, Consolidation, and Withdrawal queues — each showing the number of pending requests, total queued ETH, estimated wait time, churn limit per epoch, and a 30-day historical trend chart.

  # BeaconScore + Entity Dashboards

  We’ve just rolled out a set of updates on beaconcha.in:

  We’ve rebranded our validator efficiency metric to BeaconScore — same reliable calculation, now with a clearer name. Learn how it works [here](/beaconscore/introduction)

  A new [Entities Page](https://beaconcha.in/entities) : A high-level view of major staking providers, showing net validator share and BeaconScore — all in one interactive visualization. Shout out to to [Hildoby](https://x.com/hildobby) for providing the data.
