const timestamp = Date.now().toString();
const body = {
	chips: ['0x1234567890123456789012345678901234567890'], // Array of chip token addresses
	plyrIds: ['player123'], // Array of PLYR IDs to burn chips from
	amounts: [50] // Array of amounts to burn
};

// Generate HMAC signature
const hmac = generateHmacSignature(timestamp, body, secretKey);

// Make the API request
const response = await axios.post(apiEndpoint + '/game/chip/burn', body, {
	headers: {
		apikey: apiKey,
		signature: hmac,
		timestamp: timestamp
