Release notes

v2.4.0

  • Support conflux-rust v2.4.0 new RPC methods(https://github.com/Conflux-Chain/conflux-rust/blob/master/changelogs/JSONRPC.md#v240) cfx_feeHistory, cfx_maxPriorityFeePerGas etc.

  • Support Conflux 2930 and 1559 type transactions, will auto detect the transaction type and use the right method to sign the transaction. Default is 1559 type.

    • The transaction now has a new field type which can be 0, 1 or 2, 0 is legacy type, 1 is 2930 type 2 is 1559 type.

    • The 2930 type transaction will have a new field accessList which is an array of address and storageKeys pairs.

    • The 1559 type transaction will have a new field maxPriorityFeePerGas and maxFeePerGas.

  • Both cfx_call, and cfx_estimateGasAndCollateral have also been updated to support 1559 type transactions.

  • Transaction's receipt have three new fields type, burntGasFee, effectiveGasPrice

  • Block have a new field baseFeePerGas

Conflux class constructor parameters do not support defaultGasRatio, defaultStorageRatio anymore, because the estimation of gas and storage collateral is very accurate now.

  • Add three internal contracts CrossSpaceCall, ConfluxContext, PoSRegister

  • Add one method cfxMappedEVMSpaceAddress to address utility.

trace updates

  • Add a new boolean field valid to indicate whether this trace has change state
