`ethtx` is a small, stateless and portable microservice for generating Ethereum addresses and signing Ethereum transactions without the dedicated Ethereum node.
It comes extremely handy when you need to create Ethereum addresses (private/public key pair) or sign Ethereum transactions using a programming language that doesn't have the required crypto libraries.

Also it improves the security, because you don't need to call the remote Ethereum RPC node and send your private keys to it in order to just generate a new Ethereum address or sign your transaction.

That way the private keys won't ever leave the local host where your service or software is running.

`ethtx` consumes minimum of system resources and can be run on the local host together with your service or even desktop software.

## How it works?
It works as a HTTP service. You POST parameters and get a JSON response.
