Odaily Planet Daily News The Ethereum Go language client Go Ethereum released the Ethereum client Geth v1.12.1, which may be the largest maintenance version in its history, including security-related fixes, and it is recommended that all users upgrade.
Development work around the upcoming Cancun hard fork has been the focus of this release cycle, but Geth v1.12.1 is not yet ready for Cancun. However, this version already includes basic type definitions and state transition logic for EIP-4844 "Shard Blob Transactions", and also implements a new memory pool blobpool for EIP-4844 transactions. The new pool is backed by an on-disk database and has a simpler overall design than txpool for regular transactions. The blobpool is not yet used by p2p networks and is still being tested in the Cancun development network.
Additionally, Geth no longer supports the Rinkeby testnet.
