Investigate tracing

[bajpai244]

We should investigate the use of tracing in Ethereum execution clients, and see how we can use them in the current RPC, to enhance the RPC debugging experience and collection of various metrics.

LGTM 🚀

Results from investigation till this far:

Tracing is quite important, and it is provided as debug endpoints in various execution clients, attaching references :

• OpenEthereum
• Geth
• Moonbeam
• Reth
• Erigon

RPC providers provide special plugins that you add as an add-on to enable tracing. Here is an example from quick-node.

From the information gathered thus far, the use for it seems to be in explorers, indexers { here is thegraph mentioning it }, transaction simulation and debugging, etc.

Here is an excellent video from the Geth team on it.

Our current goal is to make sure the RPC adapter works very well, so for now, it is not our priority 0, but as we proceed with the project, a need to implement this feature will arrive, and we would have to add the ability to trace the Kakarot zkEVM.

Let's keep shipping 🚀
