Claiming Rewards

Mining Rewards

After the reward epoch has finalized, mining rewards can be claimed with:

boundless rewards claim-mining-rewards

This process is permissionless and DOES NOT require the private key for the address eligible for the rewards. The only requirement is that the stored PRIVATE_KEY has enough funds to cover gas costs on Ethereum mainnet. claim-mining-rewards uses Bento for proving (see claim.rs); therefore, make sure to have Bento running locally or specify a valid Bento API URL endpoint via --bento-api-url.

Staking Rewards

After the reward epoch has finalized, staking rewards can be claimed with:

boundless rewards claim-staking-rewards

where PRIVATE_KEY is the private key of the address that has the reward power. This would be the private key for the rewards address when using the recommended wallet setup.
