Release notes

Sourced from github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum's releases.

Gemini Sigma (v1.10.1)

Geth v1.10.1 is a minor release with the sole purpose of enabling the Berlin hard-fork! This hard-fork takes a step towards making opcodes fairer and lays the groundwork to new types of transactions, with lots of interesting features to be built on top.

The Ethereum Foundation will have a dedicated blog post for Berlin. The essential parts from Geth's perspective is that v1.10.1 is required for Berlin on all testnets and the mainnet too. Below you can find the fork blocks for the different networks and their expected schedules. Please ensure you are upgraded well in advance of the forks to ensure a smooth transition.

Pangaea Expanse (v1.10.0)

After three months of development, we are proud to announce the Geth 1.10.0 release, which is the first release in the 1.10 series.

There are a lot of new features in this release. While we review the highlights and list individual changes in this overview, we also invite you to read the Geth 1.10 release blog post, which explains the changes in more detail.

State snapshot system

In this release, the new snapshot mechanism is enabled by default. Snapshots provide O(1) access to state during EVM execution and also serve as the backbone of the snap sync and state pruning features. Note: should you run into any issues with snapshots, they can still be disabled using the --snapshot=false command-line flag. (#22280, #22177, #22288)

Snap sync

This is a new sync mode, which is a replacement for 'fast sync'. In snap sync, the node downloads Ethereum state data much more efficiently than fast sync ever could. With snap sync, we can also finally provide a progress indicator for the state download. Since this is a new feature, and few peers will support snap sync initially, snap sync is not yet enabled by default. We will make it the default in a couple of weeks. (#21482, #22171, #22235, #22272, #22334)

Berlin fork support

As of Geth 1.10.0, all EIPs scheduled for the Berlin hard fork are supported in Geth. However, due to ongoing debates about the content and timing of the fork, this release does not activate Berlin at any block number.

The following Berlin EIPs were already implemented in Geth 1.9.x:

• EIP-2929: gas cost increases for state access opcodes
• EIP-2315: simple subroutines for the EVM

In Geth 1.10.0, support for the following EIPs has been added:

• EIP-2565: modexp precompile gas cost changes (#22213)
• EIP-2718: typed transaction envelope (#21502)
• EIP-2930: access list transactions (#21502)

We have also updated to the latest consensus tests. (#22009, #22290)
