Using wallets for key management

Hyperledger Besu does not support key management inside the client. Use:

• EthSigner with Besu to provide access to your key store and sign transactions.
• Third-party tools (for example, MetaMask and web3j) for creating accounts.

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

• eth_getBalance to retrieve the account balance.
• eth_sendRawTransaction to transfer ether or create and interact with contracts. For more information, see Transactions).
• eea_sendRawTransaction to send private transactions.
