const apiKey = 'YOUR_ETHERSCAN_API_KEY';

// Replace this with the Ethereum address you want to query

// Replace this with the contract address of the ERC-20 token
const contractAddress = '0xYourTokenContractAddress';

• Replace 'YOUR_ETHERSCAN_API_KEY' with your Etherscan API key.
• Replace '0xYourEthereumAddress' with the address you want to query.
• Replace '0xYourTokenContractAddress' with the ERC-20 token's contract address (e.g., USDT or DAI token contract).
• This script queries the ERC-20 token balance for a specific Ethereum address.
