# we need contract address and the contract abi

# when making transactions in the blockchain, there are actually 2 ways that we can interaact with them

# now since we want to make a transaction to actually store some value into this contract. since we want to make a transaction,
# we got to go through the same process as when we deployed this contract
# remember nonce can only be used once for each transaction, thats why this nonce is different from the previous one we used earlier at the top

[rishigarg256]

forgot "gasPrice": w3.eth.gas_price in store_tranasaction

[rishigarg256]

does not work, still giving that same error

Hello @rishigarg256
This is the Cytools error, please refer here in order to solve it.
