Spending the genesis UTXO
Create keys and addresses to withdraw the initial UTXO:
cardano-cli keygen --secret utxo-keys/payment.000.keycardano-cli signing-key-address --testnet-magic 42 \
--secret utxo-keys/payment.000.key > utxo-keys/payment.000.addrWrite genesis addresses to files:
cardano-cli signing-key-address \
--testnet-magic 42 \
--secret utxo-keys/byron.000.key > utxo-keys/byron.000.addrIt is time to spend the genesis UTXOs and send the funds to the regular Byron addresses created above. You will send funds from their genesis addresses byron.000.addr to your newly created regular payment.000.addr:
cat utxo-keys/byron.000.addr

mkdir transactionsAnd issue a genesis UTXO expenditure. Note that for simplicity the example is being generous with transaction fees. It will pay 1 ada or 1000000 lovelace:
cardano-cli issue-genesis-utxo-expenditure \
--genesis-json configuration/byron-genesis.json \
--testnet-magic 42 \
--tx transactions/tx0.tx \
--wallet-key utxo-keys/byron.000.key \
--rich-addr-from $(head -n 1 utxo-keys/byron.000.addr) \
--txout "(\"$(head -n 1 utxo-keys/payment.000.addr)\", 29999999999000000)"Submit the transaction:
cardano-cli submit-tx \
--testnet-magic 42 \
--tx transactions/tx0.txLast updated
