Wallet Send BSV

Build, sign, and broadcast a P2PKH payment from a WIF private key using @bsv/sdk.

Note: This skill is for WIF-key-based scripts and CLIs. If building an app where users have their own wallet, use wallet-brc100 with WalletClient.createAction() instead — the wallet handles UTXOs, signing, and broadcasting automatically.

bun run skills/wallet-send-bsv/scripts/send.ts <from-wif> <to-address> <amount-satoshis> # Show help bun run skills/wallet-send-bsv/scripts/send.ts --help # Example: Send 1000 satoshis bun run skills/wallet-send-bsv/scripts/send.ts L1abc... 1BvBMSEY... 1000

Argument

Description

Dependencies

@bsv/sdk - BSV SDK for key/transaction operations
WhatsOnChain API - UTXO fetching
GorillaPool ARC - Transaction broadcast

Transaction Flow

Parse and validate WIF private key
Validate recipient address format
Derive sender address from private key
Fetch UTXOs from WhatsOnChain
Build transaction with P2PKH inputs/outputs
