Value Transfer

TxTypeValueTransfer is used when a user wants to send KAIA.

  • As kaia provides multiple transaction types to make each transaction type serve a single purpose, TxTypeValueTransfer is limited to send KAIA to an externally owned account (EOA).

Import necessary classes from the Web3j and kaia libraries(web3j-ext).

Connect to the kaia blockchain using Web3j and specify the URL

Creating sender and fee payer credentials using private keys.

Define gas price and gas limit for the transaction

Get the sender's address from credentials.getAddress()

Get the chain ID from the Kaia network

Getting the nonce for the sender's address

Initialize variables for transaction parameters

Create a raw transaction object using above parameters

Signing the transaction as sender using KlayTransactionEncoder.signMessage.

Signing the transaction as fee payer using KlayTransactionEncoder.signMessageAsFeePayer.

Sending the signed transaction to kaia network

Getting the transaction receipt

Shutting down the Web3j instance

Decoding the raw transaction to get the transaction type
