Quick Join RelayAgere

Recommended System: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS +

Preparation Work

1

Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/btclayer2/RelayAgere.git && cd RelayAgere

2

Install the dependencies

bash install.sh

3

Activate the virtual environment

source .venv/bin/activate

4

Create Wallet

./wallet.sh <cold_wallet_name>

The process will generate two wallets: a cold wallet and a hot wallet. If you choose to create wallets, there will generate two wallets: a cold wallet and a hot wallet. In the current script, the cold wallet is associated with the hot wallet automatically. The following operations will require using the name of the cold wallet. Both the cold and hot wallets are very important, and you need to securely save the wallet's mnemonic phrase to prevent loss.

You need to import both your cold wallet and hot wallet into the BEVM Wallet for easier subsequent operations.

5

Register to the agere

Please deposit BEVM token larger than register fee (at least 10 tokens ) to your cold wallet to register and join the agere.

Your stake amount must rank in the top 64 in the agere to be eligible to run as a validator.

After registration, you need to wait for the validator permit parameter to become yes. The waiting time is one epoch, approximately 10 minutes.

./register.sh <cold_wallet_name>

6

Register as a delegate

After your registration, if you want to work as a validator, you need to register as a delegate on BEVM Wallet.

If you want to become a validator, you'll also need to stake sufficient tokens in your hot address.

Router: Network->Agere->User->Agere Participants->Delegate

The first option selects the cold address, and the second option selects the corresponding hot address.

7

Check your validator permit

Open BEVM Wallet, ensure that the validator permit is set to yes, and then proceed with the following operations.

Router：Network->Agere->User->Agere Participants->Your Agere Pariticipants status->validator permit

Run a Validator Progarm

Before running the program, you need to deposit some tokens to your hot address as transaction fees so the program can send transactions normally.

Query your wallet balance

./get_balance.sh <cold_wallet_name>

Running as a Validator

1

Stake your tokens to become a validator

./stake.sh add <cold_wallet_name>

2

Run the validator program

./validator.sh -d <cold_wallet_name>

3

Check Validator run status

tail validator.log

The above code allows you to view the most recent validator logs, but to ensure that the validator program is truly running successfully on the agere, you need to wait until the Validator status parameter changes to active. This will probably take about 10-60 minutes.

Claiming Rewards

Except for agere creators, other users' BitAgere incentives are stored in stakes and need to be unstaked to receive actual tokens.

Using scripts to unstake

./stake.sh remove <cold_wallet_name>

Unstaking via BEVM Wallet
