PR description
The fallback TTD for mainnet had off-by-one error. We need to set it to
2^256 - 2^10
, but our code wasThe problem is that
MAX_VALUE
is2^256 - 1
, not2^256
. So we were calculating in the end2^256 - 1 - 2^10
.This PR replaces the calculation with the hard coded value as hex in the config and as decimal in the test.
I confirmed the value with the mainnet genesis file for the consensus clients: https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/blob/981b05afb01d5b19be3a5a60ccb12c3582e4c0cf/configs/mainnet.yaml#L16
