​Prepare Operator Deployment

  1. Clone this repo and execute the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/Ungate-Ai/infini-route-attestators-public-mainnet.git

  1. Copy .example_env into .env. 

cd infini-route-attestators-public-mainnet
cp .env.example .env

  1. Edit the .env and update the PRIVATE_KEY_ATTESTER and OPERATOR_ADDRESS with your EigenLayer proxy operator private key (ECDSA key) and the actual operator public key. This is stored locally and is used to create a BLS public key.

To address the security risk associated with storing the private key of you main operator account in the .env file, we've introduced the concept of a signer / proxy attestor account. This could be a newly created account that doesn't need to have any funds in it.

Now instead of using the private key of your main operator account, all you need to do is use the public address of it in the OPERATOR_ADDRESS.

For more information about this, please review the Othentic documentation here

PRIVATE_KEY_ATTESTER=<Signer / Proxy Account Private key>
OPERATOR_ADDRESS=<Public address of the Main Operator Account>
