i was following this tutorial [http://counterpartytalk.org/t/how-to-create-a-send-transaction-on-counterparty/2429](http://counterpartytalk.org/t/how-to-create-a-send-transaction-on-counterparty/2429).

I created my own testnet counterwallet and created a new token has name ‘longdd’

Using public coindaddy api end point to create a new raw transaction

I sent 10000 token from my adress mypcUU2fYyJav7XUpPLtMVhuPupArLJtiM to my friend address min4TCYKofu1weFiSkgBy7MGGtMPukhuHs

Response:

> {

> }

(P/s: Im using ruby)  
From my mnemonic\_code = “word1 word2 word3… word12”.  
I converted to private key base58

> prv\_key256 = Digest::SHA256.hexdigest(mnemonic\_code)  
> prv\_key = Bitcoin::Key.new(prv\_key256).to\_base58 # wallet import format

Tried to sign above raw transaction:

> bitcoin-cli --testnet signrawtransaction ‘01000000017972f79269e7b2e6643cc736c853f4d3ff5bba6b434019d11bb7fb77d8483355010000001976a914c8c934c4ad0fa394fd01747c375957f30752e26f88acffffffff020000000000000000306a2e85fa6e8ba159a1d5e5c666944fd836819499d5ff7c39fce51726a8988d1c694532451c03d09cd6284f63f352fac35d3f5805000000001976a914c8c934c4ad0fa394fd01747c375957f30752e26f88ac00000000’ ‘’ '[“prv\_key here”]

I got error

One more point,

I tried to decode raw transaction using [Decode Raw Bitcoin Hexadecimal Transaction | BlockCypher](http://live.blockcypher.com/btc/decodetx/) (not sure this is correct for cp tx or not) and found a missunderstand point.

why i didnt sign yet but scriptSig is existed.
