Notes

This does only happen if the london fork block is activated.

@jwasinger is going to have a look at this.

[gballet]

@pinkiebell what was the RPC command that you sent?

[MariusVanDerWijden]

This should already be fixed by #23133

[pinkiebell]

Crash doesn't happen anymore with latest build @ d21a069 🙌
