Sign Ethereum message

POST {{baseUrl}}/protocols/eth/sign

Sign an arbitrary message using the wallet's private key (Ethereum personal sign). This endpoint is explicitly designed in a way that prevents impersonating valid Ethereum transactions.

Define the singing wallet address via defining a from property in the body and assigning it to a string containing the address of the sending wallet. To define the sending wallet's name instead, assign the from property to an object containing the wallet property with the desired wallet's name. If both wallet and address properties are provided, the API validates if the address resolves to the signing wallet.

The message payload must not exceed the size of 10 kilobytes.

Use payload type plain to sign standard personal_sign messages.

The plain text payload given as body property is brought into the following format: "\x19Ethereum Signed Message:\n" + message.length + message. It is then hashed using keccak256 and signed.

Use the raw type to sign EIP-191 signatures. Only version 0x00 and 0x45 are allowed. Structured data (0x01) is currently not allowed.

0x19 <1 byte version>

For example:

0x19 0x00

The provided payload will be hashed with keccak256 and signed.
