This issue can be solved in two different ways.

1. It is either you downgrade your version of ethers to a lower version like 5.7.2 by running the command below on your terminal:

npm install [email protected] --save

OR

yarn add [email protected]

2. Another way of solving it is by importing JsonRpcProvider from ethers like this:

const {JsonRpcProvider} = require("ethers")

Also, refactor your code like this :

From: const provider = new ethers.providers.JsonRpcProvider("http://127.0.0.1:7545")

To: const provider = new JsonRpcProvider("http://127.0.0.1:7545")
