//substitute io1gwl3duvuzrv4kdwlnhy7c0r5ssz8939hvrhr42 in the following command with your test account you will use for development. You can create an account locally with ioctl like so: '''ioctl account createadd dev-acc''' and then use that account in the sed command. You can use any account, but you need to have the private key for it
