Description
zkEVM wasn't running scripts that update on every new block because it didn't have a websocket provider and we initialize our block counter via getting the current block number from the websocket provider (we used to listen to all blocks this way which is why we used websocket provider in the first place, but then we switched to an interval to save on Alchemy costs).
Switching the provider to the normal RPC provider so blocks update on networks without a websocket provider set.
