This feature allows you to convert a standard Ethereum address to an IBAN address. The code sample demonstrates how to use the `toIban` method to achieve this.
const Web3EthIban = require('web3-eth-iban');
const iban = Web3EthIban.toIban('0x1234567890123456789012345678901234567890');
console.log(iban);

const address = Web3EthIban.toAddress('XE7338O073KYGTWWZN0F2WZ0R8PX5ZPPZS');
console.log(address);
Validate IBAN address
This feature allows you to validate whether a given IBAN address is valid. The code sample demonstrates how to use the `isValid` method to achieve this.
const Web3EthIban = require('web3-eth-iban');
const isValid = Web3EthIban.isValid('XE7338O073KYGTWWZN0F2WZ0R8PX5ZPPZS');
console.log(isValid);
