It's always been the case that iOS betas expire and that you need to always install the latest version.

And the betas prompt you to update. But after the last beta (which was the 7.0 GM), update checks within Settings and within iTunes said "you're up to date". Never was there any hint that there was a problem. Furthermore, the cryptic errors hiding the inability of updating to "stock" firmware, requiring a recovery mode restore (despite the last beta being the GM) makes it much more frustrating.
