How to use it
// yarn add @tatumio/tatum
import { TatumSDK, AvalancheC, Network } from '@tatumio/tatum'
const tatum = await TatumSDK.init<AvalancheC>({ network: Network.AVALANCHE_C })
const response = await tatum.rpc.getBlockTransactionCountByNumber(132858572)
await tatum.destroy() // Destroy Tatum SDK - needed for stopping background jobs
