Description
This PR changes the response of the
eth_hashrate
method from a plain decimal number to a hexadecimal string. The change is in line with the behavior of the Geth.Motivation and Context
This change is required to align the behavior of the RSKj client with the Ethereum clients, which return the hashrate as a hex-encoded string. This change fixes issue #1837, where the
eth_hashrate
method in RSKj was returning a plain decimal number.How Has This Been Tested?
The changes have been tested by running the RSKj node with the changes applied. I checked the response format of the
eth_hashrate
method, and it now returns the hashrate as a hex-encoded string, which aligns with the behavior of geth.Types of changes
