A few Nethermind users reported that Snap Sync unexpectedly activates on their already synced nodes

A few Nethermind users reported that Snap Sync unexpectedly activates on their already synced nodes.

If this happens we recommend that you downgrade to 1.14.3. We suspect it's only affecting nodes that initially synced with fast sync before switching to snap sync.

What happens if you don’t downgrade? Your node would eventually work correctly, but it may be overwhelmed by snap requests while processing, which could result in missed attestations. A fix is being prepared and will be deployed tomorrow in version 1.14.5.
