Simple Summary

To provide CHAINID instruction in TVM.

Abstract

This is value can be read from smart contract to distinguish current chain with other chains.

Motivation

Currently we have multiple chains in TRON ecosystem those are build from 3 main ways: testnets, side-chain and cross-chains.From smart contract perspective, currently we don't have a mechnism to distinguish those chains, which leads to potential replay attacks. As a result, a chainid parameter is required in TVM level to guanrantee smart contract safety.

Specification

0x46: CHAINID

CHAINID takes 0 operands pop up from stack.

The return value is the genesis block id for this chain as uint256.

Rationale

CHAINID tier.ExtTier
