# Send a transaction

> Send through the announced EIP-1193 provider with stock viem; sending is never a hook.

Avok does not give you a `useSend` hook. Instead, `createAvokClient` announces an **EIP-1193
provider** over [EIP-6963](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-6963) and registers a **Solana
Wallet Standard** wallet. You send and sign with the standard ecosystem tools (wagmi, viem,
ethers, or `@solana/wallet-adapter`), which discover Avok like any other wallet.

## Send with viem

Get the provider directly and hand it to viem:

```ts theme={null}
import { createWalletClient, custom, parseEther } from "viem";

const provider = client.getEip1193Provider();
const wallet = createWalletClient({ transport: custom(provider) });

const [address] = await wallet.requestAddresses();   // eth_requestAccounts
const hash = await wallet.sendTransaction({
  account: address,
  to: "0xRecipient",
  value: parseEther("0.01"),
});                                                   // eth_sendTransaction
```

`client.getEip1193Provider()` returns the provider for direct use. If you use a connector
library such as wagmi, you don't need it: wagmi discovers the announced provider through
EIP-6963.
