⚠️ [Deprecated] ⚠️ Secure key generation for deposits
⚠️ DEPRECATED: This repository has been deprecated and is no longer maintained.
Please use the actively maintained fork at ethstaker/ethstaker-deposit-cli
deposit-cli is a tool for creating EIP-2335 format BLS12-381 keystores and a corresponding deposit_data*.json file for Ethereum Staking Launchpad.
Please read Launchpad Validator FAQs before generating the keys.
You can find the audit report by Trail of Bits here.
On Unix-based systems, keystores and the deposit_data*.json have 440/-r--r----- file permissions (user & group read only). This improves security by limiting which users and processes that have access to these files. If you are getting permission denied errors when handling your keystores, consider changing which user/group owns the file (with chown) or, if need be, change the file permissions with chmod.
See releases page to download and decompress the corresponding binary files.
Run the following command to enter the interactive CLI and generate keys from a new mnemonic:
./deposit new-mnemonic
or run the following command to enter the interactive CLI and generate keys from an existing:
./deposit existing-mnemonic
The Launchpad offers many language/internationalization options. If you wish to select one as a CLI argument, it must be passed in before one of the commands is chosen.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
--language |
String. Options: العربية, ελληνικά, English, Français, Bahasa melayu, Italiano, 日本語, 한국어, Português do Brasil, român, 简体中文. Default to English |
The language you wish to use the CLI in. |
Warning: with this flag, there will be no confirmation step(s) to verify the input value(s). Please use it carefully.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
--non_interactive |
Flag | Run CLI in non-interactive mode. |
The CLI offers different commands depending on what you want to do with the tool.
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
new-mnemonic |
(Recommended) This command is used to generate keystores with a new mnemonic. |
existing-mnemonic |
This command is used to re-generate or derive new keys from your existing mnemonic. Use this command, if (i) you have already generated keys with this CLI before, (ii) you want to reuse your mnemonic that you know is secure that you generated elsewhere (reusing your eth1 mnemonic .etc), or (iii) you lost your keystores and need to recover your keys. |
You can use new-mnemonic --help to see all arguments. Note that if there are missing arguments that the CLI needs, it will ask you for them.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
--num_validators |
Non-negative integer | The number of signing keys you want to generate. Note that the child key(s) are generated via the same master key. |
--mnemonic_language |
String. Options: 简体中文, 繁體中文, český jazyk, English, Italiano, 한국어, Português, Español. Default to English |
The language of the mnemonic word list |
--folder |
String. Pointing to ./validator_keys by default |
The folder path for the keystore(s) and deposit(s) |
--chain |
String. mainnet by default |
The chain setting for the signing domain. |
--execution_address (or --eth1_withdrawal_address) |
String. Eth1 address in hexadecimal encoded form | If this field is set and valid, the given Eth1 address will be used to create the withdrawal credentials. Otherwise, it will generate withdrawal credentials with the mnemonic-derived withdrawal public key in ERC-2334 format. |
You can use existing-mnemonic --help to see all arguments. Note that if there are missing arguments that the CLI needs, it will ask you for them.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
--validator_start_index |
Non-negative integer | The index of the first validator's keys you wish to generate. If this is your first time generating keys with this mnemonic, use 0. If you have generated keys using this mnemonic before, use the next index from which you want to start generating keys from (eg, if you've generated 4 keys before (keys #0, #1, #2, #3), then enter 4 here. |
--num_validators |
Non-negative integer | The number of new signing keys you want to generate. Note that the child key(s) are generated via the same master key. |
--folder |
String. Pointing to ./validator_keys by default |
The folder path for the keystore(s) and deposit(s) |
--chain |
String. mainnet by default |
The chain setting for the signing domain. |
--execution_address (or --eth1_withdrawal_address) |
String. Eth1 address in hexadecimal encoded form | If this field is set and valid, the given Eth1 address will be used to create the withdrawal credentials. Otherwise, it will generate withdrawal credentials with the mnemonic-derived withdrawal public key in ERC-2334 format. |
You will see the following messages after successfully generated the keystore(s) and the deposit(s):
Creating your keys: [####################################] <N>/<N>
Creating your keystores: [####################################] <N>/<N>
Creating your depositdata: [####################################] <N>/<N>
Verifying your keystores: [####################################] <N>/<N>
Verifying your deposits: [####################################] <N>/<N>
Success!
Your keys can be found at: <YOUR_FOLDER_PATH>
You can use bls-to-execution-change --help to see all arguments. Note that if there are missing arguments that the CLI needs, it will ask you for them.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
--bls_to_execution_changes_folder |
String. Pointing to ./bls_to_execution_changes by default |
The folder path for the bls_to_execution_change-* JSON file(s) |
--chain |
String. mainnet by default |
The chain setting for the signing domain. |
--mnemonic |
String. mnemonic split by space. | The mnemonic you used to create withdrawal credentials. |
--mnemonic_password |
Optional string. Empty by default. | The mnemonic password you used in your key generation. Note: It's not the keystore password. |
--validator_start_index |
Non-negative integer | The index position for the keys to start generating withdrawal credentials in ERC-2334 format. |
--validator_indices |
String of integer(s) | A list of the chosen validator index number(s) as identified on the beacon chain. Split multiple items with whitespaces or commas. |
--bls_withdrawal_credentials_list |
String of hexstring(s). | A list of the old BLS withdrawal credentials of the given validator(s). It is for confirming you are using the correct keys. Split multiple items with whitespaces or commas. |
--execution_address (or --eth1_withdrawal_address) |
String. Eth1 address in hexadecimal encoded form | If this field is set and valid, the given Eth1 address will be used to create the withdrawal credentials. Otherwise, it will generate withdrawal credentials with the mnemonic-derived withdrawal public key in ERC-2334 format. |
--devnet_chain_setting |
String. JSON string '{"network_name": "<NETWORK_NAME>", "genesis_fork_version": "<GENESIS_FORK_VERSION>", "genesis_validator_root": "<GENESIS_VALIDATOR_ROOT>"}' |
The custom chain setting of a devnet or testnet. Note that it will override your --chain choice. |
