decoderawtransaction should use hex or decimal, not both #30067

   Is there an existing issue for this?

   • I have searched the existing issues

   Current behaviour

   I have two different op_return outputs, but they are shown identically in their “asm” decoding:

   0      "scriptPubKey": {
   1        "asm": "OP_RETURN 1431655765",
   2        "hex": "6a051431655765",
   3      }
   

   0      "scriptPubKey": {
   1        "asm": "OP_RETURN 1431655765",
   2        "hex": "6a0455555555",
   3      }
   

   One shows the hex value. The other shows the decimal value. It would be better to be consistent and always use one or the other.

   Expected behaviour

   Different scripts should look different

   Steps to reproduce

   Create the two scripts I showed and examine them

   Relevant log output

   No response

   How did you obtain Bitcoin Core

   Operating system and version

   Ubuntu deleterious donkey or whatever

   Machine specifications

   I don’t think it really matters does it?
