-## 10.0.0-dev-rc.1 - 2025-03-24
+## 10.0.0 (EXPERIMENTAL) - 2025-04-29
+
+**Note:** This library is in an **experimental** stage and should not be used in production!
+
+### Overview
+
+This release is part of the `v10` breaking release round making the `EthereumJS` libraries compatible with the [Pectra](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-7600) hardfork going live on Ethereum `mainnet` on May 7 2025. Beside the hardfork update these releases mark a milestone in our release history since they - for the first time ever - bring the full `Ethereum` protocol stack - including the `EVM` - to the browser without any restrictions anymore, coming along with other substantial updates regarding library security and functionality.
+
+Some highlights:
+
+- 🌴 Introduction of a tree-shakeable API
+- 👷🏼 Substantial dependency reduction to a "controlled dependency set" (no more than 10 + `@Noble` crypto)
+- 📲 **EIP-7702** readiness
+- 🛵 Substantial bundle size reductions for all libraries
+- 🏄🏾‍♂️ All libraries now pure JS being WASM-free by default
+- 🦋 No more propriatary `Node.js` primitives
+
+So: **All libraries now work in the browser "out of the box"**.
+
+### Release Notes
+
+Major release notes for this release can be found in the `alpha.1` release notes [here](https://github.com/ethereumjs/ethereumjs-monorepo/pull/3722#issuecomment-2792400268), with some additions along with the `RC.1` releases, see [here](https://github.com/ethereumjs/ethereumjs-monorepo/pull/3886#issuecomment-2748966923).
+
+## 10.0.0-rc.1 - 2025-03-24
 
 This is the first (and likely the last) round of `RC` releases for the upcoming breaking releases, following the `alpha` releases from October 2024 (see `alpha` release release notes for full/main change description). The releases are somewhat delayed (sorry for that), but final releases can now be expected very very soon, to be released once the Ethereum [Pectra](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-7600) hardfork is scheduled for mainnet and all EIPs are fully finalized. Pectra will then also be the default hardfork setting for all EthereumJS libraries.

 > Binary Trees are a novel cryptographic data structure proposed for use in Ethereum to optimize state storage and proof verification. Unlike Merkle Patricia Tries, Binary Trees use a strict binary branching structure, allowing smaller proof sizes. By reducing storage overhead and improving proof efficiency, Binary Trees aim to enhance Ethereum’s scalability while maintaining robust security guarantees.
 
-This package is currently in early alpha and is a work in progress. It is not intended for use in production environments, but rather for research and development purposes. Any help in improving the package is very much welcome.

+
+### Overview
+
+This release is part of the `v10` breaking release round making the `EthereumJS` libraries compatible with the [Pectra](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-7600) hardfork going live on Ethereum `mainnet` on May 7 2025. Beside the hardfork update these releases mark a milestone in our release history since they - for the first time ever - bring the full `Ethereum` protocol stack - including the `EVM` - to the browser without any restrictions anymore, coming along with other substantial updates regarding library security and functionality.
+
+Some highlights:
+
+- 🌴 Introduction of a tree-shakeable API
+- 👷🏼 Substantial dependency reduction to a "controlled dependency set" (no more than 10 + `@Noble` crypto)
+- 📲 **EIP-7702** readiness
+- 🛵 Substantial bundle size reductions for all libraries
+- 🏄🏾‍♂️ All libraries now pure JS being WASM-free by default
+- 🦋 No more propriatary `Node.js` primitives
+
+So: **All libraries now work in the browser "out of the box"**.
+
+### Release Notes
+
+Major release notes for this release can be found in the `alpha.1` release notes [here](https://github.com/ethereumjs/ethereumjs-monorepo/pull/3722#issuecomment-2792400268), with some additions along with the `RC.1` releases, see [here](https://github.com/ethereumjs/ethereumjs-monorepo/pull/3886#issuecomment-2748966923).
+
+### Changes since `RC.1`
+
+- New package name `@ethereumjs/e2store`, add support for `E2HS` file format, PR [#3954](https://github.com/ethereumjs/ethereumjs-monorepo/pull/3954)

 ## 10.0.0-rc.1 - 2025-03-24
 
 This is the first (and likely the last) round of `RC` releases for the upcoming breaking releases, following the `alpha` releases from October 2024 (see `alpha` release release notes for full/main change description). The releases are somewhat delayed (sorry for that), but final releases can now be expected very very soon, to be released once the Ethereum [Pectra](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-7600) hardfork is scheduled for mainnet and all EIPs are fully finalized. Pectra will then also be the default hardfork setting for all EthereumJS libraries.

 ## 10.0.0-rc.1 - 2025-03-24
 
 This is the first (and likely the last) round of `RC` releases for the upcoming breaking releases, following the `alpha` releases from October 2024 (see `alpha` release release notes for full/main change description). The releases are somewhat delayed (sorry for that), but final releases can now be expected very very soon, to be released once the Ethereum [Pectra](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-7600) hardfork is scheduled for mainnet and all EIPs are fully finalized. Pectra will then also be the default hardfork setting for all EthereumJS libraries.

 ## 10.0.0-rc.1 - 2025-03-24
 
 This is the first (and likely the last) round of `RC` releases for the upcoming breaking releases, following the `alpha` releases from October 2024 (see `alpha` release release notes for full/main change description). The releases are somewhat delayed (sorry for that), but final releases can now be expected very very soon, to be released once the Ethereum [Pectra](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-7600) hardfork is scheduled for mainnet and all EIPs are fully finalized. Pectra will then also be the default hardfork setting for all EthereumJS libraries.
