Using Wallets for Key Management

Pantheon doesn't support key management inside the client. Use:

• EthSigner with Pantheon to provide access to your key store and sign transactions.

• Third-party tools (for example, MetaMask and web3j) for creating accounts.

In Pantheon, you can use the JSON-RPC methods:

• eth_getBalance to obtain the account balance
• eth_sendRawTransaction to transfer ether or create and interact with contracts (for more information, refer to Transactions).
• eea_sendRawTransaction to send private transactions.

!!! tip EthSigner implements eth_sendTransaction and eea_sendTransaction.
