Transfer LYX

Transfering 0.5 LYXt between two Universal Profiles.

info

The full code of this example can be found in the 👾 lukso-playground repository.

The 🆙 Universal Profile Extension makes it easy to send LYX transaction without having to interact with the smart contract of the Universal Profile. If you are building a service or backend, you can also 👾 execute transfers by directly calling the profile contract.

Setup

web3.js

npm install web3@v1

ethers.js

npm install ethers

Transfer LYX from a Universal Profile

The Universal Profile browser extension will magically wrap all the calls internally so you don't have to worry about crafting custom transactions. Simply use eth_sendTransaction as you always did while working with EOA.

web3.js

import Web3 from 'web3';

const web3 = new Web3(window.lukso);

await web3.eth.requestAccounts();
const accounts = await web3.eth.getAccounts();

await web3.eth.sendTransaction({
    from: accounts[0],                      // The Universal Profile address
    to: '0x...',                            // receiving address, can be a UP or EOA
    value: web3.utils.toWei('0.5', 'ether') // 0.5 amount in ETH, in wei unit
})

ethers.js

import { ethers } from 'ethers';

const provider = new ethers.BrowserProvider(window.lukso);

await provider.send("eth_requestAccounts", []);

const signer = await provider.getSigner();
const account = await signer.getAddress();

// Send transaction
const tx = await signer.sendTransaction({
    from: account,                        // The Universal Profile address
    to: '0x...',                          // Receiving address, can be a UP or EOA
    value: ethers.parseEther('0.5') // 0.5 amount in ETH, in wei unit
});
