Description

README.md shows privateKey: Buffer.from('...'), but I assume the privateKey expects only string, or not?
Would fix this typo to avoid confusion as setting Buffer in privateKey actually won't work.

Research direction

Start with README.md and inspect the privateKey example and its surrounding wording; confirm the documented input type before editing. Done when the example no longer suggests Buffer.from(...) for privateKey and the README remains consistent.
