# Send Tokens ## Testnet Faucet On a testnet, getting tokens is usually done via a faucet. You can get tokens for testing purposes using the [Secret Network faucet](https://faucet.pulsar.scrttestnet.com/). ## Query Account Balance After receiving tokens to your address, you can view your account's balance by typing: ```bash secretcli query bank balances ``` ```json # secretcli query bank balances secret1kcy20p0cs2wakeqz00xgs5m0cmj65283xqmvfs | jq { "balances": [ { "denom": "uscrt", "amount": "99942000" } ], "pagination": { "next_key": null, "total": "0" } } ``` Get your `` using: ```bash # Use the -a flag to display the addres only secretcli keys show -a ``` You can also supply your address with the following command: ```bash # This grabs the desired acount address and uses it as an input to the # secretcli query bank balances command secretcli query bank balances $(secretcli keys show -a ) ``` ***Note:** When querying an account balance with zero tokens, you will get the error: `No account with address was found in the state.` This can also happen if you fund the account before your node is fully synced. These are both normal.* ## Send Tokens Use the following command to send tokens from one account to another: ```bash secretcli tx bank send

--fees=70000uscrt 10uscrt ``` ***Note:** The `amount` argument accepts the format ``. You may want to cap the maximum gas consumed by transactions via the `--gas` flag.* If you pass `--gas=auto`, the gas supply is automatically estimated before transaction execution. Inaccurate gas estimates may occur in-between the end of the simulation and the actual execution of a transaction. An adjustment needs to be applied on top of the original estimate for the transaction to be broadcasted successfully. Adjustment are controlled via the `--gas-adjustment` flag, with a default value of 1.0. To view updated balances of origin and destination accounts use: ``` secretcli query bank balances secretcli query bank balances ``` ## Flags ### Height You can also check balances at any block height using the `--height` flag: ```bash secretcli query bank balances --height= ``` #### Example ```bash secretcli query bank balances \ secret1kcy20p0cs2wakeqz00xgs5m0cmj65283xqmvfs \ --height=3415892 | jq ``` #### Example Output ```json { "balances": [ { "denom": "uscrt", "amount": "2000" } ], "pagination": { "next_key": null, "total": "0" } } ``` ### Note You can add a note (previously called 'memo') to any transaction using the `--note` flag: ```bash secretcli tx bank send \ \ \ \ --note '' ``` ```json secretcli tx bank send \ secret1kcy20p0cs2wakeqz00xgs5m0cmj65283xqmvfs \ secret193w2cdzhjt9vf9ehw9clmmyg5jvnj7dslaqcd0 \ 10uscrt \ --note 'Hello this is a test' | jq confirm transaction before signing and broadcasting [y/N]: y { "height": "0", "txhash": "9E41B419CAFDC245706B0B6C689299AFEF932F2864F88F6FBA417DE516F39B2A", "codespace": "", "code": 0, "data": "", "raw_log": "[]", "logs": [], "info": "", "gas_wanted": "0", "gas_used": "0", "tx": null, "timestamp": "", "events": [] } ``` ### Dry Run You can simulate a transaction without actually broadcasting it by appending the `--dry-run` flag: ```bash secretcli tx bank send \ \ \ 10uscrt \ --chain-id= \ --dry-run ``` ``` // Some code ``` ### Generate Only Furthermore, you can build a transaction and print its JSON format to STDOUT by appending `--generate-only` to the list of arguments: ``` secretcli tx bank send

10uscrt \ --chain-id= \ --generate-only > unsignedSendTx.json ``` ``` secretcli tx sign \ --chain-id= \ --from= \ unsignedSendTx.json > signedSendTx.json ``` ***Note:** The `--generate-only` flag prevents `secretcli` from accessing the local keybase. When the flag is supplied `` must be an address.* #### Validate Signatures You can validate transaction signatures by typing the following: ``` secretcli tx validate-signatures --from= signedSendTx.json ``` #### Broadcast Signed Transaction You can broadcast the signed transaction to a node by providing the JSON file using: ``` secretcli tx broadcast --node= signedSendTx.json ```
