This release adds support for the upcoming cancun hardfork. This hardfork is not enabled by default; if you want to use it, then you have to enable it in your Hardhat config:
module.exports = {
networks: {
hardhat: {
hardfork: "cancun",
},
},
}Keep in mind that blob transactions are not supported yet. If you need this, please upvote or comment on this issue.
In addition, this release adds support for solc 0.8.24.
