StaticJsonRpcProvider is removed in v6

[dellwatson]

i saw it no longers available in v6? why is it removed?

[ricmoo]

It's built into the JsonRpcProvider, using the JsonRpcOptions.

That way it can be used easily within any sub-class, since JavaScript doesn't support multiple inheritance. :)

const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider(
    url,
    null,
    { staticNetwork: ethers.Network.from(chainId) }
);

Would this decrease the "eth_chainId" that's being called everytime the provider is used?

Yes, it does.
