Update: eth2-package now supports Flashbot's mev-boost for MEV-testing/simulations in a private devnet, and more!

Hey! I'm Derek from Kurtosis. I posted a while back about our eth2-package. Since then, a lot has happened:

• It's been used to rapidly test and iterate locally for dencun-devnet-8 and will continue to be used in further testing ahead of Dencun
• A dev building Paradigm's new EL client Reth was able to go from 0 to a full interop devnet in a few hours using the eth2-package and used it to find and fix a bug - all in <24hrs of using Kurtosis.
• At the MEV-Boost Community Call #5, we announced native support for Flashbot's implementation of out-of-protocol Proposer-Builder Separation (PBS) (i.e. mev-boost) for MEV-testing and emulation on a private testnet. Capella is supported and support for Dencun is coming soon. Check out our guide here on how to get going and here is the Github README.
• Security firms are using the eth2-package to test protocol-level bugs/vulnerabilities (more deets on this soon).

There's so much left to build. Huge shoutout & thank you to all those in the community who've contributed and worked on this.

If folks don't want to mess around with helm charts and YAML to get a private devnet going, we encourage folks to check out the eth2-package - let me know if you've got questions or feedback! We want to make this maximally useful for the Ethereum ecosystem :)
