This is an Ethereum network as specified in the yellow paper¹, with Homestead², EIP150³, EIP155⁴, EIP160⁵, ECIP1017⁶ applied from block 0. The era for ECIP1017 is changed to 10 million. Chain id and network id are both 0x40. Difficulty bomb is diffused from block 0.

Genesis block contains 0 coins (hence no premine). The initial difficulty in genesis block is changed to 0x40000000, its extra data field is 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000, and its initial nonce is 0x0000000000000040.
