This release gets the Block library ready for the berlin HF by adding support for EIP2718 Typed Transactions. Transaction objects are now created with the new TransactionFactory introduced with the @ethereumjs/tx v3.1.0 release which chooses the correct tx type for the data. The initial tx release supports the old legacy transactions and the newly added EIP2930 Access List Transaction Type, see PR #1048.

Please note that the default HF is still set to istanbul. You therefore need to explicitly set the hardfork parameter for instantiating a Block instance with a berlin HF activated:

import { Block } from 'ethereumjs-block'
import Common from '@ethereumjs/common'
const common = new Common({ chain: 'mainnet', hardfork: 'berlin' })
const block = Block.fromBlockData({}, { common })

EthereumJS Libraries - Typed Transactions Readiness

If you are using this library in conjunction with other EthereumJS libraries make sure to minimally have the following library versions installed for typed transaction support:

  • @ethereumjs/common v2.2.0
  • @ethereumjs/tx v3.1.0
  • @ethereumjs/block v3.2.0
  • @ethereumjs/blockchain v5.2.0
  • @ethereumjs/vm v5.2.0

Other Changes

  • Added support for very large chain IDs when using Block cliqueSigner() address recovery, PR #1139
  • Fixed a TS compilation failure on install relating to ethereumjs-util v7.0.9, PR #1136
