web3.eth.Contract can't parse ABI correctly [web.1.0.0-beta.47]

[lebed2045]

Simple nodejs program which calls totalSupply() from Dai smartcontract

const Web3 = require('web3');
const rpcURL = 'https://mainnet.infura.io/v3/<your_key>';
const web3 = new Web3(rpcURL);


const daiSmartcontractAddress = "0x89d24A6b4CcB1B6fAA2625fE562bDD9a23260359";
const daiSmartcontactAbi =

Thanks for creating this issue! I will check and fix it asap.

Also occurs in beta.47

Although the message is

Error: Invalid bytes string given: 0x

I've tested it with a standard ERC20 token and couldn't reproduce your issue. Could you create an example repository/branch or gist file which contains everything for testing it closer?
