Thanks for the report! This is a dupliucate of #10003; I'd suggest following that issue for further updates.

@Gudahtt Hi this problem persists after merge of issue #10003 you can test with our Hyperledger Besu fork in public mint Here is the rpc: https://rpc.tst.publicmint.io:8545/

Thanks @helderjnpinto; I'll re-open this. The original issue reported two problems, the one we fixed was related to gas price. I'm not aware of any recent changes to how balance is queried.

Could you share additional details? In particular, it'd be great to know the network settings (Settings -> Networks -> PublicMint-TST), and also the most recent MetaMask version that you've tested with.

@Gudahtt here is the network settings:

• Name: PublicMint Testing network
• RPC: https://rpc.tst.publicmint.io:8545/
• ChainID: 2019
• Symbol: USD
• Explorer: https://explorer.tst.publicmint.io/

Correct eth_getBalance

curl --location --request POST 'https://rpc.tst.publicmint.io:8545/' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "method": "eth_getBalance",
    "params": [
        "0x8717eD44cEB53f15dB9CF1bEc75a037A70232AC8",
        "latest"
    ],
    "id": 1
}'
{
  "jsonrpc" : "2.0",
  "id" : 1,
  "result" : "899950000000000000000"
}%

@Gudahtt

But this balance is em WEI and not have convertion rate.
PublicMint treats ETH units as if it were a USD ERC20 with 18 decimal places or like normal Ethereum balance.
Just need to show ETH balance like in ethereum mainnet but with Label USD / MINT.

Also is not hex value, so resuming:

• is not hex, is WEI units.
• not have convertion rate

Here is the printscreen of debug in chrome.

@Gudahtt sorry for this issue i investigated more and maybe is only my fork of besu, https://besu.hyperledger.org/en/1.4.4/Reference/API-Methods/#eth_getbalance in documentation needs to respond a hex value not WEI value.

Thanks for reopening this case i will close.

OK, sounds good. Thanks for following up!
