eth_sendRawTransaction

Last updated:

`eth_sendRawTransaction` submits an **already-signed** transaction to the network for inclusion in a block. You sign the transaction locally with your private key, RLP-encode it, hex-encode the result, and pass that single hex string as the only parameter. Triport never sees or holds your key — only the signed payload.

On success the method returns the transaction hash immediately. This hash is returned as soon as the transaction is accepted into the mempool; it does **not** mean the transaction has been mined. Poll [`eth_getTransactionReceipt`](./eth_getTransactionReceipt.md) with the returned hash to confirm inclusion and read the final status.

This is the only state-changing method in the `eth` read namespace, and it sits in its own `eth_send_tx` rate-limit category with **markedly lower limits than read methods** (3 RPS on free vs. 10+ RPS for reads). Budget your send rate accordingly and back off on `-32003`. The method is available from the free tier upward — no paid tier is required to broadcast transactions.
