I follow this step to send the transaction on the testnet：  
[https://docs.pokt.network/js/guides/quickstart](https://docs.pokt.network/js/guides/quickstart)

 ![image](https://forum.pokt.network/uploads/default/original/1X/bdd24e5a3006cfea5a480fe634bed5f30e829daf.png)

But an error message was returned  
{  
“code”: “0”,  
“message”: “{"codespace":"sdk","code":2,"message":"ERROR:\nCodespace: sdk\nCode: 2\nMessage: \"error decoding transaction: proto: illegal wireType 7\"\n"}”,  
“session”: {},  
“node\_public\_key”: “”  
}  
Who can help me? Thanks.
