Development

Core-Geth development

Upstream patches merged through at least v1.10.23, with v1.10.21 on master.

Core-Geth is

Fixed a consensus bug in Etchash caching logic, which

ETC’s majority

presented originally as an ephemeral consensus

client, with

failure on Mordor testnet (#499).

95% adoption.
Cross-client tests generated by core-geth can now be run by Besu, and have been improved in this dialogue.

Thanks Diego!

Erigon development

Erigon is a go-ethereum fork, a prototype client using differential designs for database and RPC.

ETC support has been implemented and its first successful flight has taken place. Full synchronization on ETC took a
few days, and uses about 160 GB.
Cross-client tests will be further incorporated, but are already largely running and passing.

Hyperledger Besu development

7 releases during Q3
During Q3 Besu development work was focused on three topics.

Gnosis Safe for ETC

In Q3 the following features have been configured and tested for Gnosis Safe which was been started at Q2:

Add/modify of safe owners.

Documentation
