Once you have set up your local environment with an .env file, add the following line of code:

PRIVATE_KEY = 'ADD_YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY_HERE'

Replace ADD_YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY_HERE with your private key. You can also store your RPC URL in the .env file.

Then create a new index.js file and copy-paste the below ethers.js v5 script:

require("dotenv").config();
const ethers = require('ethers');
(async () => {
    const provider = new ethers.providers.JsonRpcProvider('QUICKNODE_HTTPS_URL');
    const signer = new ethers.Wallet(process.env.PRIVATE_KEY, provider);

      const tx = await signer.sendTransaction({
        to: '0x92d3267215Ec56542b985473E73C8417403B15ac',
        value: ethers.utils.parseUnits('0.001', 'ether'),
      });
      console.log(tx);
})();

In the next section, we will replace QUICKNODE_HTTPS_URL with your Quicknode HTTPS URL.
