  When you use web3 sendTransaction, you're interacting with the Ethereum blockchain. Ethereum is a decentralized platform that enables the creation of smart contracts and the execution of transactions. The web3 library provides a convenient way to interact with the Ethereum network using JavaScript. When you call the sendTransaction function, you're essentially creating a transaction object and sending it to the network. This transaction object contains information such as the recipient's address, the amount of Ether to send, and any additional data. Once the transaction is sent, it will be validated by the network's nodes and added to a block. Once the block is mined, the transaction is considered confirmed and the recipient can access the Ether you sent. It's a fundamental process in the world of cryptocurrencies and enables various use cases, such as transferring funds or interacting with smart contracts.
