 It is possible to use a custom genesis block configuration in development mode. To obtain a compatible configuration, run `geth --dev dumpgenesis`. The resulting genesis has proof-of-stake and all pre-merge hard forks activated at block 0. Precompile addresses are funded to prevent them being removed from the state per EIP158.
