# State
The `x/evm` module keeps the following objects in state:
| | Key | Value |
|-----------------|---------------------------------------------------|---------------------------|
| Block Height | `[]byte{1} + []byte(block.Hash)` | `BigEndian(block.Height)` |
| Bloom | `[]byte{2} + []byte(block.Height)` | `[]byte(Bloom)` |
| Tx Logs | `[]byte{3} + []byte(tx.Hash)` | `amino([]Log)` |
| Account Code | `[]byte{4} + []byte(code.Hash)` | `[]byte(Code)` |
| Account Storage | `[]byte{5} + []byte(address) + []byte(state.Key)` | `[]byte(state.Value)` |
| Chain Config | `[]byte{6}` | `amino(ChainConfig)` |
## `CommitStateDB`
`StateDB`s within the ethereum protocol are used to store anything within the IAVL tree. `StateDB`s
take care of caching and storing nested states. It's the general query interface to retrieve
contracts and accounts
The Ethermint `CommitStateDB` is a concrete type that implements the EVM `StateDB` interface.
Instead of using a trie and database for querying and persistence, the `CommitStateDB` uses
`KVStores` (key-value stores) and Cosmos SDK `Keeper`s to facilitate state transitions.
The `CommitStateDB` contains a store key that allows the DB to write to a concrete subtree of the
multistore that is only accessible to the EVM module.

The functionalities provided by the Ethermint `StateDB` are:
* CRUD of `stateObject`s and accounts:
* Balance
* Code
* Nonce
* State
* EVM module parameter getter and setter
* State transition logic
* Preparation: transaction index and hash, block hash
* CRUD of transaction logs
* Aggregate queries
* Snapshot state
* Identify current state with a revision
* Revert state to a given revision
* State transition and persistence
* Preparation: tx and block context
* Commit state objects
* Finalise state objects
* Export state for upgrades
* Auxiliary functions
* Copy state
* Reset state
