The SELFDESTRUCT
opcode has been deprecated after the Ethereum Shanghai upgrade and its behavior has been modified after the Ethereum Cancun upgrade. For compatibility, EIP-6049: Deprecate SELFDESTRUCT is required to be announced in the TRON community firstly.
The following compatibility issues require community attention.
-
Contracts that depended on re-deploying contracts at the same address using
CREATE2
(after aSELFDESTRUCT
) may not function properly. -
It may be no longer possible to burn TRX by calling
SELFDESTRUCT
targeting the executing contract as the beneficiary.
Original content from EIP-6049:
This EIP deprecates the SELFDESTRUCT
opcode and warns against its use. A breaking change to this functionality is likely to come in the future.
Discussions about how to change SELFDESTRUCT
are ongoing. But there is a strong consensus that something will change.
Documentation of the SELFDESTRUCT
opcode is updated to warn against its use and to note that a breaking change may be forthcoming.
As time goes on, the cost of doing something increases, because any change to SELFDESTRUCT
will be a breaking change.
The Ethereum Blog and other official sources have not provided any warning to developers about a potential forthcoming change.
This EIP updates non-normative text in the Yellow Paper. No changes to clients is applicable.
None.
