Description
Issue
EIP-4399 replaces mixHash block header value with beacon chain RANDAO mix to expose it inside of the EVM, this EIP suggests that the field should be further renamed to prevRandao, thus, there is a desire to do the renaming in JSON RPC API schema.
This change would involve:
- Renaming itself
- Tests update
- EL clients update to conform the new schema
The other problem which doesn't seem to have a perfect solution is serving old PoW blocks with updated schema. One of potential solutions would be to make mixHash and prevRandao optional in the schema and filled by clients according to the context. The downside of this solution is additional engineering and testing complexity.
