🔹AltLayer

1. Generate Keys

First, generate your ECDSA and BLS keys:

eigenlayer operator keys create --key-type ecdsa altlayer_ecdsa
eigenlayer operator keys create --key-type bls altlayer_bls

2. Configure EigenLayer Operator

Create the configuration files:

eigenlayer operator config create

Edit the ~/.eigenlayer/operator_config.yaml file:

operator_address: "0x123...789" # Your ECDSA address
earnings_receiver_address: "0x123...789" # Address to receive earnings
el_slasher_address: "0x4200000000000000000000000000000000000021"
bls_public_key_compendium_address: "0x4200000000000000000000000000000000000022"

Update the ~/.eigenlayer/metadata.json file:

{
  "name": "Your Operator Name",
  "website": "https://your-website.com",
  "description": "Your operator description",
  "logo": "https://your-logo-url.com/logo.png",
  "twitter": "https://twitter.com/your_handle"
}

3. Set up AltLayer MACH AVS

Clone and navigate to the repository:

git clone https://github.com/alt-research/mach-avs-operator-setup.git
cd mach-avs-operator-setup

4. Configure AltLayer Node

Edit the docker-compose.yml file:

version: '3.8'
services:
  mach-avs:
    image: altlayer/mach-avs:latest
    container_name: mach-avs
    restart: always
    volumes:
      - ./mach-config.toml:/app/mach-config.toml
      - ./keys:/app/keys
    environment:
      - ECDSA_KEY_PASSWORD=your_ecdsa_password
      - BLS_KEY_PASSWORD=your_bls_password
    ports:
      - "8080:8080"

Update the mach-config.toml file:

[node]
ecdsa_key_file = "/app/keys/ecdsa_key.json"
bls_key_file = "/app/keys/bls_key.json"

[eth]
rpc_url = "https://mainnet.infura.io/v3/YOUR_INFURA_PROJECT_ID"

[altlayer]
rpc_url = "https://testnet-mach-rpc.altlayer.io"

[metrics]
enabled = true
port = 8080

5. Set up keys

Copy your ECDSA and BLS key files to the keys directory:

mkdir keys
cp ~/.eigenlayer/operator_keys/altlayer_ecdsa.ecdsa.key.json keys/ecdsa_key.json
cp ~/.eigenlayer/operator_keys/altlayer_bls.bls.key.json keys/bls_key.json

6. Start the Node

Launch your AltLayer node:

docker-compose up -d

7. Monitor Logs

Check the node logs:

docker-compose logs -f

8. Register as an Operator

If not already registered, use the EigenLayer CLI:

eigenlayer operator register

9. Opt-in to AltLayer AVS

Opt-in to the AltLayer AVS using the EigenLayer CLI:

eigenlayer avs opt-in --avs-id altlayer
