Because the title states, I am attempting to ship a Litecoin transaction utilizing the Blockcypher API Python SDK, and utilizing Bitcoinlib for key administration. I’ve extensively reviewed the documentation and supply code for the instruments I am working with, and I’ve tried researching this particular error however nonetheless have but to get previous this roadblock.

I’ve gotten to a degree the place the transaction is constructed and and signatures are created, however once I strive broadcasting it, the API returns this error to my console:

First, I attempted utilizing the simple_spend methodology as proven beneath…

from blockcypher import simple_spend
simple_tx = simple_spend(api_key = API_KEY, from_privkey=priv_key_hex,
to_address="ltc1qxdvtqt9tm7rwplk8upezujtjsh6k3l85tw39ue", to_satoshis=10000, coin_symbol="ltc")
print('tx:', simple_tx)

… and this error was produced:

TX Error(s): Tx NOT Signed or Broadcast
Unable to discover a transaction to spend for deal with LhYFhgm6iai5da8ADeoUjs2BnAPoPm74cm.
Not sufficient funds in 0 inputs to pay for 1 outputs, lacking -10000.

Error validating generated transaction: Transaction lacking enter or output.
Traceback (most up-to-date name final):
  File "most important.py", line 33, in <module>
    simple_tx = simple_spend(api_key = API_KEY, from_privkey=priv_key_hex, to_address="ltc1qxdvtqt9tm7rwplk8upezujtjsh6k3l85tw39ue", to_satoshis=10000, coin_symbol="ltc")
  File "/residence/runner/sendltc/venv/lib/python3.10/site-packages/blockcypher/api.py", line 1684, in simple_spend
    elevate Exception('Construct Unsigned TX Error')
Exception: Construct Unsigned TX Error

This means that the non-public key I offered is routinely being formatted as a legacy deal with, the place no funds for the enter transaction exist as a result of I funded the segwit by-product of the non-public key. I’ve since verified that this code will correctly execute transactions once I fund the legacy by-product of the non-public key. Nevertheless it doesn’t work once I try and contain a segwit addresses because the sender or receiver.

Since I’m not sure of how to make sure that the simple_spend methodology makes an attempt a segwit transaction, I attempted developing it piece-by-piece.

Here is the code for that:

from bitcoinlib.keys import Key
from blockcypher import create_unsigned_tx, make_tx_signatures, broadcast_signed_transaction

API_KEY = '<api_key>'

wif="<compressed_wif>"


priv_key_hex = Key(wif, community = 'litecoin').private_hex
pub_key_hex = Key(wif, community = 'litecoin').public_hex

sender = Key(priv_key_hex, community = 'litecoin').deal with(prefix='ltc', script_type="p2wpkh", encoding='bech32')
inputs = [{'address': f"{sender}"}]
outputs = [{'address': 'ltc1qxdvtqt9tm7rwplk8upezujtjsh6k3l85tw39ue', 'value': 10000}]

unsigned_tx = create_unsigned_tx(inputs=inputs, outputs=outputs, include_tosigntx=True, coin_symbol="ltc", api_key = API_KEY)
print(unsigned_tx)

privkey_list = [str(priv_key_hex)]
pubkey_list = [str(pub_key_hex)]

tx_signatures = make_tx_signatures(txs_to_sign=unsigned_tx['tosign'], privkey_list=privkey_list, pubkey_list=pubkey_list)
print('')
print(tx_signatures)

tx = broadcast_signed_transaction(unsigned_tx=unsigned_tx, signatures=tx_signatures, pubkeys=pubkey_list, coin_symbol="ltc", api_key = API_KEY)
print('')
print(tx)

So when I attempt to run this, the aforementioned error is returned, stating that the script couldn’t be verified. My hunch is that it has one thing to do with trying to broadcast a legacy transaction whereas I offered a segwit deal with. Upon viewing related threads on right here, it could appear that the signature is being malformed both as a result of there’s a downside with how I am deriving my keys, or by some means I have to set a flag indicating a segwit transaction. This might result in the foundation of the issue, however I is also overlooking different points.

Any recommendation, pointers, or solutions could be enormously appreciated. Thanks to your time.
