## What `spark_transferToken` does

This method initiates a token transfer on Spark using the selected token’s identifier. The user will:

1. Review the **recipient**, **token name**, and **amount**.
2. Approve the transaction in their Xverse wallet.
3. The transaction will be **signed and broadcasted** on the Spark network.

The `spark_transferToken` method returns a Promise that resolves to the `SparkTokenTransferResult` object:
