The Hedera JSON RPC Relay project has recently seen significant improvements, focusing on system enhancements and bug fixes. Key enhancements include improved logging when fallback to consensus nodes and a major refactoring of ETH test specifications. On the bug fix front, the team resolved issues related to Docker image creation, MetaMask compatibility, and inconsistent responses in the "getBalance" function. Additionally, the project updated several dependencies to maintain software security and efficiency, without delving into specific details of each update. These collective efforts demonstrate a strong commitment to optimizing the relay's performance and reliability.
Notably "Batch Requests" feature has been activated on both previewnet and testnet. Pending Mainnet for the next release.
