[jdevcs]

This issue is for tracking features of Transaction in 4.x.

• [ ] Transaction decoding Feature ( for endusers and also for usage in handle revert functionality)

  • Legacy Transactions
  • Typed Transaction 0x1 https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-2930 0x2 https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/blob/master/EIPS/eip-1559.md

• [ ] accessListify

• [ ] parseTransaction This could be implemented as a standalone method, but creating a transaction object should support serialized transactions for instantiation

• [ ] serializeTransaction This could probably be achieved by exposing a serialize method from @ethereumjs/tx object
