Methods

  • Gets the public key hash of the delegate to whom the power of the genesis key is being delegated. In the transitional phase from the Byron era to the Shelley era, the holders of the genesis keys used a GenesisKeyDelegation certificate to delegate their rights to produce blocks to a specific set of new keys (genesis delegates).

    Returns

    The public key hash of the delegate.

    Returns Hash28ByteBase16
