# eth\_sendTransaction (to do)

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Only for node operators**

The `eth_sendTransaction` JSON-RPC method requires a signature from the specified account. As nodes do not store user private keys, they cannot sign user transactions. 

Nodes can sign their own transactions but must unlock their account before doing so.
{% endhint %}

#### Parameters

`Object` - The transaction object

* `from`: `DATA`, 20 Bytes - The address the transaction is sent from.
* `to`: `DATA`, 20 Bytes - (optional when creating new contract) The address the transaction is directed to.
* `gas`: `QUANTITY` - (optional, default: 90000) Integer of the gas provided for the transaction execution. It will return unused gas.
* `gasPrice`: `QUANTITY` - (optional, default: To-Be-Determined) Hexadecimal of the gasPrice used for each paid gas.
* `value`: `QUANTITY` - (optional) Hexadecimal of the value sent with this transaction.
* `input`: `DATA` - The compiled code of a contract OR the hash of the invoked method signature and encoded parameters.
* `nonce`: `QUANTITY` - (optional) Hexadecimal nonce value. This allows to overwrite your own pending transactions that use the same nonce.

#### Returns

`DATA`, 32 Bytes - The transaction hash, or the zero hash if the transaction is not yet available.

Use [eth\_getTransactionReceipt](/telcoin-network/readme-1/eth_gettransactionreceipt.md) to get the contract address, after the transaction was mined, when you created a contract.

#### Example

#### Request

```
curl https://rpc.adiri.tel \

    gas: "0x76c0", // 30400
    gasPrice: "0x9184e72a000", // 10000000000000
    value: "0x9184e72a", // 2441406250
