from the readme:

web3.eth.getAccounts().then((accounts) => {
  web3.eth.sendTransaction({
    from: accounts[0],
    to: "0x6A823E…",
    value: "1000000000000000000",
  });
});

here's my code:

  const transactionParameters = {
    to: contractAddress,
    value: "1000000000000000000",
    from: window.ethereum.selectedAddress,
    data: window.contract.methods
      .createCollectible(window.ethereum.selectedAddress, tokenURI)
      .encodeABI(),
  };

results in a transaction for 4722.366483 ETH. what's wrong here?

i tried using a different BN library but it results in the same thing.

ok, when i convert from decimal to hex, it works. this feels like a bug.

This has since been fixed. Running the asme code snippet will send 1ETH.

Closing the issue, but feel free to ask any other questions you may have.
