Tracks the progress of Lighthouse on the Kintsugi interop effort

MEV Lighthouse Kiln

How To Run

This testnet requires 5 terminal processes, one for geth, 2 for beacon nodes, one for a validator client, and one for MEV-boost. See the per-terminal commands below.

Terminal 1: Geth

cd geth

On the first time, be sure to run ./install-geth.sh

./run-geth.sh

You will be prompted to enter a password for the wallet. You can just press ENTER a few times. After being dumped into the console you must run

miner.start()

Terminal 2: MEV boost

Install MEV-boost, the directions exist in the mev-boost dir.

cd mev_boost
./mev_boost

Terminal 3: Lighthouse Beacon Node 1

First, install lighthouse and lcli if you haven't. Directions exist in the lighthouse directory.

cd lighthouse
./start_beacon_node_1.sh

Note: it's important to start this beacon node before the other beacon node or validator client because this script also produces tesnet config.

Terminal 4: Lighthouse Beacon Node 2

cd lighthouse
./start_beacon_node_2.sh

Terminal 5: Lighthouse Validator Client

cd lighthouse
./start_validator_client.sh
