Month: 2025-09 — Focused on stabilizing TEVM memory client caching to ensure correct interaction with VIEM caching and prevent stale or overlapping results during and after mining operations. Delivered a cache coherency fix in evmts/tevm-monorepo by setting cacheTime to 0 to respect TEVM's internal caching, and added a regression test to verify immediate updates after mining operations. This work improves data correctness, reliability, and developer confidence when interacting with TEVM memory client and VIEM integration.
