## 21.1.0-RC1
### 21.1.0 Breaking Changes
* `--skip-pow-validation-enabled` is now an error with `block import --format JSON`. This is because the JSON format doesn't include the nonce so the proof of work must be calculated.
* `eth_call` will not return a JSON-RPC result if the call fails, but will return an error instead. If it was for a revert the revert reason will be included.
* `eth_call` will not fail for account balance issues by default. An parameter `"strict": true` can be added to the call parameters (with `to` and `from`) to enforce balance checks.

* Added a new CLI option `--Xlauncher` to start a mainnet launcher. It will help to configure Besu easily.
* Return the revert reason from `eth_call` JSON-RPC api calls when the contract causes a revert. [\#1829](https://github.com/hyperledger/besu/pull/1829)
* Added `chainId`, `publicKey`, and `raw` to JSON-RPC api calls returning detailed transaction results. [\#1835](https://github.com/hyperledger/besu/pull/1835)
### Bug Fixes
* Ethereum classic heights will no longer be reported in mainnet metrics. Issue [\#1751](https://github.com/hyperledger/besu/pull/1751) Fix [\#1820](https://github.com/hyperledger/besu/pull/1820)

* Add a more rational value to eth_gasPrice, based on a configurable percentile of prior block's transactions (default: median of last 100 blocks). [\#1563](https://github.com/hyperledger/besu/pull/1563)
