 ### Bug Fixes
 
 * [\#9969](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/9969) fix: use keyring in config for add-genesis-account cmd.
+* (rosetta) [\#10340](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/10340) Use `GenesisChunked(ctx)` instead `Genesis(ctx)` to get genesis block height
 * (x/genutil) [#10104](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/10104) Ensure the `init` command reads the `--home` flag value correctly.
 * (x/feegrant) [\#10049](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/10049) Fixed the error message when `period` or `period-limit` flag is not set on a feegrant grant transaction.
