v0.62.0

Overview

The Hedera JSON-RPC Relay v0.62.0 release introduces a significant enhancement with the ability to return HTS token addresses for newly created HTS tokens in transaction receipts. This update ensures that HTS token creation transactions return the correct token address by detecting HTS token creation calls to the system contract, extracting and decoding the token's EVM address from the call result, and including it in the receipt under the contractAddress field, replacing the previous value which was always the HTS system contract address (0x167). This improvement enhances compatibility with Ethereum-based tooling, simplifying workflows for developers and ensuring seamless integration of token creation processes.

Another key update in this release allows transactions with a value of 0 to pass through the system. By removing this restriction, the platform now supports broader use cases, including specific smart contract operations and test scenarios where zero-value transactions are essential. This change also ensures consistency with Ethereum, aligning the platform with industry standards.

This release also includes critical bug fixes, such as improved cache handling for getFilterLogs calls, ensuring consistent and accurate filtering. Dependency upgrades, including updates to web3 and @hashgraph/sdk, enhance compatibility and performance. Internal changes, such as extended format checking via openrpcjson and workflow updates, demonstrate ongoing efforts to maintain a robust and reliable codebase. These updates continue to refine the platform, providing developers with a more powerful and seamless integration experience.
