+
+This release has support for Fusaka testnets as well as many mainnet improvements. Testnet operators are required to updated prior to the testnet fork date. See [PR #15721](https://github.com/OffchainLabs/prysm/pull/15721).
+
+Mainnet operators are encouraged to update per their regular update cadence. 
+
+Note: This release was re-issued as v6.1.1 to distribute release assets without debug symbols. See issue [#15760](https://github.com/OffchainLabs/prysm/issues/15760).
+
+#### Noteworthy improvements, changes and bugfixes:
+- The `--disable-experimental-state` beacon-node flag has been removed, marking the full graduation of the [Copy-on-write design](https://hackmd.io/zlTJ6Qe_RiueT3y2R77BvA) for BeaconState fields, which reduces the memory overhead of keeping multiple BeaconStates in RAM for block processing. Congrats @rkapka!
+- The behavior set by the `--attest_timely` flag is now on by default, with the flag itself deprecated.
+- GetDutiesV2 introduced, lowering duty request latency and beacon-node load. Multiple other improvements and bugfixes have been made to harden the validator run loop.
+- New validator flag `--max-health-checks` configures a validator to switch to a fallback beacon node after the given number of health check failures.
+- Improvements to rest-mode validator, defaulting to SSZ where available and adding SSZ support to more Beacon API endpoints.
+- Beacon API now honors the gzip content-encoding header.
+- Log timestamps now include milliseconds.
+- Full fusaka support for testnets! 
+
+**Special thanks to external contributors!**: @Alleysira, @KaloyanTanev, @rose2221
