Prepares unsigned transactions for burning tokens from the signer’s balance. Use POST /prepare-transactions with method=burnToken.

Next step

Preparing does not touch the chain. The response gives you txId and an array of unsigned transactions — you still have to sign and submit them.

Sign every returned transaction

Sign each entry locally with the wallet that sends the transaction — signerAddress, or investorAddress for newInvest and claimTokens. It must be whitelisted by Brickken, and it needs native gas on the target chain.

Submit the signed payloads

POST them to /send-transactions as { txId, signedTransactions } and Brickken broadcasts for you.If you would rather broadcast yourself, prepare with executionMode: "client-broadcast" and confirm afterwards with { txId, txHash } instead.

Poll until it confirms

Call GET /get-transaction-status with the txId. A pending status means it is broadcast but not yet mined — do not resubmit.
