Research direction

Start by locating the implementation and tests for the debug transaction view command, then reproduce the issue with the poison-tx.txbody example and inspect the certificate rendering path. Done means the JSON output preserves the complete double hash shown in the transaction CBOR, with the relevant command tests passing.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

debug transaction view CMD truncates the double hash making it less useful as debugging tool.

[ 
 { 
   "Stake address registration and delegation": { 
     "delegatee": { 
       "delegatee type": "stake", 
       "key hash": "5e376d756f6eec459900a4abcf2510316c45b13cf204a57c703dc251" 
     },

     } 
   } 
 } 
]

the actual CBOR shows :
