Well done for making it this far! Let’s now look at how to transfer your coins to some other account.
Step III – Sending to another address
Choose a new address on your Metamask and copy the address.
We will transfer our PETER tokens to that address
Step IV
Paste the newly copied address in the transfer method, also put a comma and the amount you wish to transfer. In my case I input
<address******>, 1000This means I wish to transfer 1000PETER from my main address to the new address. Click transfer and confirm the Metamask popup that comes up.
Step V
- Note the successful transfer of PETER coin after confirming the transaction.
Confirming the transfer!
In order to confirm the transfer, we need to check that our tokens have actually been transferred to the new wallet address.
First, we need to add our token contract to our Metamask. To do this, copy your token address as shown below.
Step VI
- Copy the address of where our contract is deployed by checking the debug logs
Step VII
Select the new address on Metamask that we just sent the tokens to.
Click import tokens on Metamask
Click “Add Custom Token” after pasting the token address
Click Import Token on the next page
Confirm that your token has a new value!!
Well done! Now, lets check whether our main account has less amount after doing the transfer!
Step IX
- Copy and Paste the address of the main account on the balanceOf field
- Click on `balanceOf` and obseerve the results on the debug console
- Our balance is now 49000 PETER as we anticipate!!
