bug: waitForTransactionReceipt hangs indefinitely when a bogus nonce is set in metamask

[pedromcunha]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Package Version

2.7.3

Current Behavior

If using waitForTransactionReceipt the function will hang forever if awaited.

Expected Behavior

It should throw an error or return a bad receipt

Steps To Reproduce

• Trigger a transaction and wait for the receipt (can use https://explorer.reservoir.tools/ethereum for this)
• In metamask adjust the nonce to a bogus number)
• Metamask will report that the transaction has failed but the waitForTransactionReceipt continues to hang indefinitely.
