  **Breaking changes**
  - Removed utility functions: `transaction.awaitExecuted()`, `transaction.awaitPending()`. `TransactionWatcher` should be used directly, instead.

  - Constructor of `Transaction` now requires `chainID`, as well.
  - Added `Interaction.withChainID()` - must be used before calling `buildTransaction()`.
  - Altered a bit the public interface of `TransactionEvent`, `Receipt` (renamed fields, renamed methods).
- - Remove `transaction.getAsOnNetwork()`. One should use `provider.getTransaction()` instead.
- - Remove `acount.sync()`. Replaced by `account.update({ nonce, balance})`.
- - Remove `transaction.send()`. `Provider.sendTransaction()` has to be used instead.
