Hardhat deploy on xDAI "TransactionMinedTimeout [Error]: Timed out waiting for transaction"

Hi @jacobrosenthal,

Welcome to the community :wave:

I was able to deploy a simple upgradeable contract to xDAI: OpenZeppelin Upgrades: Step by Step Tutorial for Hardhat so assume it is the linked libraries which results in the timeout of 60 seconds.

Can you try updating to the latest version of @openzeppelin/hardhat-upgrades in case that resolves the issue. (You are using 1.5.0 and the latest is 1.6.0).
