+## Test 1559 balance + gasCap
+
+This test contains an EIP-1559 consensus issue which happened on Ropsten, where
+`geth` did not properly account for the value transfer while doing the check on `max_fee_per_gas * gas_limit`.
+
+Before the issue was fixed, this invocation allowed the transaction to pass into a block:
+```
+dir=./testdata/12 && ./evm t8n --state.fork=London --input.alloc=$dir/alloc.json --input.txs=$dir/txs.json --input.env=$dir/env.json --output.alloc=stdout --output.result=stdout
+```
+
+With the fix applied, the result is: 
+```
+dir=./testdata/12 && ./evm t8n --state.fork=London --input.alloc=$dir/alloc.json --input.txs=$dir/txs.json --input.env=$dir/env.json --output.alloc=stdout --output.result=stdout
