+## [v5.3.1](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/compare/v5.3.0...v5.3.1) - 2025-03-13
+
+This release is packed with critical fixes for **Electra** and some important fixes for mainnet too. 
+
+The release highlights include:
+
+- Ensure that deleting a block from the database clears its entry in the slot->root db index. This issue was causing some operators to have a bricked database, requiring a full resync. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/15011)
+- Updated go to go1.24.0. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/14969)
+- Added a feature flag to sync from an arbitrary beacon block root at startup. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/15000)
+- Updated default gas limit from 30M to 36M. Override this with `--suggested-gas-limit=` in the validator client. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/14858)
+
+Known issues in **Electra**:
+
+- Duplicate attestations are needlessly processed. This is being addressed in [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/15034).
+
+Testnet operators are strongly encouraged to update to this release. There are many fixes and improvements from the Holesky upgrade incident.
+
+Mainner operators are recommended to update to this release at their regular cadence. 
+
+### Added
+
+- enable E2E for minimal and mainnet tests. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/14842)
+- enable web3signer E2E for electra. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/14936)
+- Enable multiclient E2E for electra. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/14946)
+- Enable Scenario E2E tests with electra. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/14946)
+- Add endpoint for getting pending deposits. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/14941)
+- Add request hash to header for builder: executable data to block. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/14955)
+- Log execution requests in each block. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/14956)
+- Add endpoint for getting pending partial withdrawals. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/14949)
+- Tracked validators cache: Added the `ItemCount` method. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/14957)
+- Tracked validators cache: Added the `Indices` method. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/14957)
+- Added deposit request testing for electra. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/14964)
+- Added support for otel tracing transport in HTTP clients in Prysm. This allows for tracing headers to be sent with http requests such that spans between the validator and beacon chain can be connected in the tracing graph. This change does nothing without `--enable-tracing`. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/14972)
+- Add SSZ support to light client finality and optimistic APIs. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/14836)
+- add log to committee index when committeebits are not the expected length of 1. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/14993)
+- Add acceptable address types for static peers. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/14886)
+- Added a feature flag to sync from an arbitrary beacon block root at startup. [[PR]](https://github.com/prysmaticlabs/prysm/pull/15000)

Jaeger supports otel format, however you may need to update your URL as the default otel-collector port is 4318.
