Prepare A UTXO-Based Transaction From HD Wallet (xPub, yPub, zPub)

Through the “Prepare a UTXO-based transaction from xPub” endpoint users can prepare a transaction for signing from all synced with Crypto APIs addresses for the specific xPub. This is based on the selectionStrategy and the addresses’ balances. In the case a user has an address not synced with Crypto APIs, it will not be included. This endpoint applies to all supported UTXO-based blockchain protocols, e.g. Bitcoin, Litecoin, etc.

Single Result - This endpoint returns only one single result. POST /blockchain-data/{blockchain}/{network}/transactions/prepare-utxo-transaction
