Major new features
Permission smart contract deployment
The newly introduced feature enables network operators to whitelist which addresses can deploy smart contracts. For more information, please see our official guide.
Known issues that were fixed
TxPool DDoS
There was an issue where one account could fill up the TxPool with enqueued transactions that could not be included in a block because of a nonce gap, thus denying entry to any incoming transaction by remaining in the pool indefinitely.
Memory Leak
In some edge cases, the header size kept increasing, causing node memory usage to steadily increase.
Besides the new features and fixed issues mentioned above, this version of Polygon Edge also includes a few minor improvements and bug fixes. The full list of changes can be found in the Changelog below.
