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 the web3 and @kaiachain/web3js-ext packages to add kaia features on web3

Define sender, fee payer addresses and private keys

Set up the provider with the specified kairos testnet URL. A provider in web3 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 using web3.eth.accounts.privateKeyToAccount

Create a fee payer's wallet with the private key using web3.eth.accounts.privateKeyToAccount

Define the transaction object.

Set type: TxType.FeeDelegatedValueTransfer for transaction to send a value transfer with a fee payer

Set value: toPeb("0.01") to define the value to be transfered, use toPeb to convert Klay to Peb

Set others params like from, to

Sign the transaction with sender account using signTransaction

Sign the transaction with fee payer account using signTransactionAsFeePayer

Send the transaction to blockchain. It will return the transaction receipt
