Public Account Key

AccountKeyPublic is used for accounts having one public key. If an account has an AccountKeyPublic object, the transaction validation process is done like below:

Import the ethers and @kaiachain/ethers-ext packages to add kaia features on ethers.js

Define sender's address and private keys

Define receiver's address

Set up the provider with the specified kairos testnet URL. A provider in ethers is a read-only abstraction to access the blockchain data.

Also, you can change the provider URL from kairos to quicknode

Create a sender's wallet with the private key and provider

Create a value transfer transaction with type: TxType.ValueTransfer so that it can be recovered later with klay_recoverFromTransaction

Sign the transaction with sender's wallet, the populateTransaction method add more params to the transaction object such as gas, nonce...

Send the signed transaction to kaia network

Wait for the transaction to be completed and print the receipt

Recover the address from signed transaction using klay_recoverFromMessage
