I suspect this is a bit of a newb question, but I'm trying to run the following code using IDLE Shell 3.9.1:
from bitcoin.rpc import RawProxy
p = RawProxy()
info = p.getblockchaininfo()
print(info['blocks'])
And I am getting the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

self._handle = _dlopen(self._name, mode)
FileNotFoundError: Could not find module 'libeay32' (or one of its dependencies). Try using the full path with constructor syntax.
Any thoughts on how to get beyond this? Thanks for your help!
