Become an Operator

Deploy Manta SFP operator (Manta Symbiotic Finality Provider)

Repo Link: manta-fp

important

The staking amount needs to be greater than 400,000 Manta to receive rewards. If the operator is deregistered, the operator name, address, and reward address can no longer be used.

Steps to Deploy a SFP operator

1. install go via go doc

2. clone the manta-fp code, build, and generate the sfpd.conf config file under /data/manta-fp-sfpd-1/home

   git clone https://github.com/Manta-Network/manta-fp
   cd manta-fp
   make build
   mkdir -p /data/manta-fp-sfpd-1/home /data/manta-fp-sfpd-1/db
   ./build/sfpd init --home /data/manta-fp-sfpd-1/home

3. Adjust sfpd.conf for testnet: OperatorName should be unique RewardAddress is your address to receive fp rewards EnableKms can be enabled to use kms to sign ChainId = 11155111 is the eth testnet ChainId StartHeight The latest height from which we start polling the chain of eth testnet EthRpc The rpc url of eth testnet L2OutputOracleAddr = 0x2dd44d1b04170C5623cCc55DD5ed43FAB08b0B46 The testnet L2OutputOracleAddr MantaStakingMiddlewareAddress = 0x63e3e4542315512d717cc0997b518ab00aa496f0 The testnet MantaStakingMiddlewareAddress SymbioticOperatorRegisterAddress = 0x6F75a4ffF97326A00e52662d82EA4FdE86a2C548 The testnet SymbioticOperatorRegisterAddress DBPath The db path, need to be persistent Namespace = 00006d742d66702d746e The celestia Mocha testnet namespace DaRpc The celestia testnet rpc url. You can deploy a celestia light node of Mocha testnet. It also has a helm chart.

4. Adjust sfpd.conf for mainnet: to be implemented

5. Start SFP operator

   If EnableKms is false

   ./build/sfpd start --home /data/manta-fp-sfpd-1/home --auth-token $(CELESTIA_AUTH_TOKEN) --private-key $(FP_EVM_PRIVATE_KEY)

   If EnableKms is true

   ./build/sfpd start --home /data/manta-fp-sfpd-1/home --auth-token $(CELESTIA_AUTH_TOKEN) --kms-region $(KMS_REGION) --kms-id $(KMS_ID)

6. Health check api: http://localhost:8080/ping

7. Metrics: http://localhost:2113/metrics
