#MetaMask chainId issue

If you are using MetaMask with Hardhat Network, you might get an error like this when you send a transaction:

Incompatible EIP155-based V 2710 and chain id 31337. See the second parameter of the Transaction constructor to set the chain id.

This is because MetaMask mistakenly assumes all networks in http://127.0.0.1:8545 to have a chain id of 1337, but Hardhat uses a different number by default. Please upvote the MetaMask issue about it if you want this fixed.

In the meantime, consider using an alternative wallet that doesn't have this problem, like Coinbase Wallet.

If you want to use MetaMask, you can work around this issue by setting the chainId of Hardhat Network to 1337 in your Hardhat config:

networks: {
  hardhat: {
    chainId: 1337
  },
}

Note that if your setup or any of your plugins depends on the chain id being 31337, you might need to clean your cache or make further adaptations in your config.
