ethereum/go-ethereum v1.17.3

Enzymatic Injector (v1.17.3)

on GitHub

This is a maintenance release with continued progress on the Amsterdam fork implementation. It also introduces ETH/70, which is now live on the network.

Breaking change for tracing APIs (debug_trace*), specifically the structLog (opcode) tracer. The following response fields now follow the newly established client-wide spec (ethereum/execution-apis#762) and reexec has been removed from the tracing config:

• memory: words are 0x-prefixed and padded to 32 bytes
• storage: keys and values are 0x-prefixed
• error: omitted when empty (previously serialized as "")
