Describe the Problem

input: 0x01b55c1c
output: 0x01b55c1c
i want: 0x1b55c1c

in 5.7.2 it works properly

console.log(utils.hexStripZeros(utils.hexlify(28662812)))

output: 0x1b55c1c

I think I'll stay on version 5 for now. a lot of bugs in 6 still

In v6, you want to use ethers.toQuantity to get a JSON-RPC standard quantity.

In v5, you shouldn’t be using utils.stripZerosLeft for that purpose either, as that will also return a datahexstring (same as ethers.stripZerosValue in v6), you want to use utils.hexValue in v5 for a quantity value.
