# IBC-Go v10 to v11

> This guide provides instructions for migrating to a new version of ibc-go.

This guide provides instructions for migrating to a new version of ibc-go.

**Note:** ibc-go supports golang semantic versioning and therefore all imports must be updated on major version releases.

Diff examples are shown after the list of overall changes:

* Chains will need to remove the `ParamSubspace` arg from all calls to `Keeper` constructors

```diff theme={"system"}
  app.IBCKeeper = ibckeeper.NewKeeper(
    appCodec,
    runtime.NewKVStoreService(keys[ibcexported.StoreKey]),
-   app.GetSubspace(ibcexported.ModuleName),
    app.UpgradeKeeper,
    authtypes.NewModuleAddress(govtypes.ModuleName).String(),
  )
```

The transfer module, the packet forward middleware, and the rate limiting middleware support custom address codecs. This feature is primarily added to support Cosmos EVM for IBC transfers. In a standard Cosmos SDK app, they are wired as follows:

```diff theme={"system"}
  app.TransferKeeper = ibctransferkeeper.NewKeeper(
    appCodec,
+    app.AccountKeeper.AddressCodec(),
    runtime.NewKVStoreService(keys[ibctransfertypes.StoreKey]),
    app.IBCKeeper.ChannelKeeper,
    app.MsgServiceRouter(),
    app.AccountKeeper, app.BankKeeper,
    authtypes.NewModuleAddress(govtypes.ModuleName).String(),
  )
```

```diff theme={"system"}
  app.RateLimitKeeper = ratelimitkeeper.NewKeeper(
    appCodec,
+    app.AccountKeeper.AddressCodec(),
    runtime.NewKVStoreService(keys[ratelimittypes.StoreKey]),
    app.IBCKeeper.ChannelKeeper,
    app.IBCKeeper.ClientKeeper,
    app.BankKeeper,
    authtypes.NewModuleAddress(govtypes.ModuleName).String()
  )
```

```diff theme={"system"}
  app.PFMKeeper = packetforwardkeeper.NewKeeper(
    appCodec,
+    app.AccountKeeper.AddressCodec(),
    runtime.NewKVStoreService(keys[packetforwardtypes.StoreKey]),
    app.TransferKeeper,
    app.IBCKeeper.ChannelKeeper,
    app.BankKeeper,
    authtypes.NewModuleAddress(govtypes.ModuleName).String()
  )
```
