  • Enables querying "finalized" blocks.
  • Update geth.

The post merge dev mode doesn't seem very well documented.

It was added in this PR:

ethereum/go-ethereum#28463

To get a working genesis block, this workaround is needed

  • geth --datadir /path/to/data --dev
  • shut down geth
  • geth --datadir /path/to/data dumpgenesis

Close #12

@Ancient123 a downside of this seems to be that the block period can no longer be set via the genesis block but needs to be set via --dev.period (in seconds) instead.
