Hello Celo devs
Last week, we published our 2023 roadmap (“The Next Chapter: Introducing Celo 2.0 | by cLabs ”) and with that we shared our commitment to providing a top-tier developer experience on Celo.
For a quick recap on what we did to date, take a look at my developer experience update

react-celo If you are a wallet or dapp developer, you will undoubtedly have heard of WalletConnect .
released WalletConnect v2 in production ,
announced the sunsetting of WalletConnect v1, and
shared a plan to migrate from v1 → v2
In line with the official dapp migration timeline, we’re releasing a major version of react-celo with WalletConnect v2 support:
in beta by Thursday, February 9 , and
in production by Wednesday, February 15 .
Many of you asked for native Celo support in Foundry. This is one of our top priorities and we are investigating how to add Celo pre-compiles natively .
Thanks @douglasqian for kindly pointing us to this Github discussion !
Instead of navigating the Celo website to request testnet tokens at celo.org/developers/faucet , we’re making a simple page at faucet.celo.org
Wagmi is a popular library with 20+ React hooks containing everything you need to start working in web3. Yours truly @aaronmgdr made a small PR to add native support for Celo
Improving your developer experience on Celo continues to be my top priority!
Stay tuned for more updates on both the blog and forum . We’ll continue to keep you updated as we learn more and start building.
In the meantime, if you have any thoughts or feedback, I’d love to hear from you. Please share them below or ping me on Discord.

To support Celo’s custom gas fee currency feature in EthersJS natively by adding a new transaction type.

enhancement

v6
### Describe the Feature
I would like to be able to send and sign transaction… s which have types beyond null 1 and 2 and which may contain additional parameters.
Currently Ethers does not allow transactions with other types and actively removes any unknown object parameters making the use of alternative transaction types impossible.
My initial use for this will be using Celo's `0x7c` ie type `124` which adds support the gasFeeCurrency parameter to transactions.
//////
I plan to do the work for this. But want to start a discussion about how ethers would prefer to address this.
I could just submit a PR to allow the specific use case I have. Alternatively perhaps ethers could support some sort of bring your own Transaction Envelope parser. As of yet I don't know how it would look or if it would actually have benefits in code size and understandability.
### Code Example
```shell
sendTransaction({
type: 124,
to: EOA_ADDRESS,
from: EOA_ADDRESS,
value: 0
feeCurrency: CUSD_CONTRACT_ADDRESS,
//etc
})
```
### Other cases where alternative Transaction details are being requested
