0xPolygon/bor - v2.5.4 New Hotfix

Published: Dec 9, 2025
Type: Hotfix

Release Summary

This is a hot-fix release, Bor v2.5.4, which addresses a critical issue with RPC trace methods.


Following the Madhugiri Hard Fork on mainnet, errors were occurring when using trace_* methods on blocks that contained state-sync transactions.


This update resolves the problem by implementing different handling for state-sync transactions within the tracing APIs. Upgrading is recommended for all node operators, especially those who rely on or provide tracing functionalities, to ensure correct API responses and stability.

Release Notes

This is a hot-fix which fixes the errors encountered in the `trace_*` methods for block with state sync transactions post Madhugiri Hard Fork on mainnet.
