Hi,

I noticed earlier today that the method getinfo() doesn't seem to work in the rpc module:

python-bitcoinlib/bitcoin/rpc.py

Line 513 in b5540e8

r = self._call('getinfo')

Should call('getinfo') be replaced by call('getblockchaininfo')? (https://bitcoincore.org/en/doc/0.20.0/rpc/blockchain/getblockchaininfo/)

The getinfo RPC call has been deprecated in favor of a bunch of more specific "info" calls including getblockchainfo. See also getnetworkinfo, getwalletinfo etc. Whether this works depends on the version of bitcoind it's talking to. We should probably add direct methods to reflect changes in bitcoind's rpc...

including getblockchainfo

typo: getblockchaininfo
