In the mother consensus mechanism, the staking for validators is divided into two parts: L-BTC staking and Wasm's GEB staking. Therefore, you need to set up an L-BTC node. We provide a quick guide to help you quickly set up this part. You need to obtain the EVM address mapped by the AA wallet for binding in the third step.

2

Complete the preparation and deployment of the PoS Validator

This step is essential to becoming a consensus validator. Please follow it strictly.

3

Complete the wallet's EVM address to the Wasm wallet

Binding an EVM address is a prerequisite for becoming an L-BTC staking mining validator node (can accept LBTC token staking, and participate in GEB mining).

Validator nodes not participating in L-BTC staking mining (i.e., without bound EVM address) can still receive BTC gas rewards and GEB transaction fee rewards(Different from the GEB assigned with the Mother Consensus).

It is recommended that validators bind the EVM address generated within the GEB Hub to facilitate the claiming process.

Set Commission on the GEB Hub

Recommend commission value > 10%

Method two: Directly using a personal EVM address without involving LND-related content.

Complete the wallet's EVM address to the Wasm wallet

Binding an EVM address is prerequisite for becoming an L-BTC staking mining validator node (can accept LBTC token staking, participate in GEB mining).

Validator nodes not participating in L-BTC staking mining (i.e., without bound EVM address) can still receive BTC gas rewards and GEB transaction fee rewards(Different from the GEB assigned with the Mother Consensus).
