Validator Reward Claim Instructions

Please use these instructions to claim your rewards!

Validators can now claim their $vPTS rewards using a command-line tool. There are two main options: install from using Cargo, or clone the GitHub repo and run it from source.

🛠️ Prerequisites

Before starting:

Rust must be installed. Most validators already have Rust installed since it’s required to run a validator. If not, install it via:
```
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
```
Optional but recommended: install or update to the latest stable toolchain. A rust-toolchain.toml will be added to the repo to ensure seamless builds.

🚀 Quick Claim (via Cargo)

Install the CLI Tool
Run the following to install the reward claim CLI:
```
cargo install merkle-distributor-claim-cli
```

Run the Claim Command

Replace <YOUR KEYPAIR FILE PATH> with your actual .json keypair file path. The following examples show how to set environment variables depending on your shell or OS:

Unix/macOS/Linux/WSL:

AIRDROP_BASE_URL=https://solanavault.github.io/simd-228-vpts-airdrop/proofs \
DISTRIBUTOR_ADDRESS=BAzvEJH5w7igbbkiRLhCD89b1gLtrZz6B9wxxuh3ocJz \
MINT_ADDRESS=vPtS4ywrbEuufwPkBXsCYkeTBfpzCd6hF52p8kJGt9b \
md-claim <YOUR KEYPAIR FILE PATH>

PowerShell:

$env:AIRDROP_BASE_URL="https://solanavault.github.io/simd-228-vpts-airdrop/proofs"
$env:DISTRIBUTOR_ADDRESS="BAzvEJH5w7igbbkiRLhCD89b1gLtrZz6B9wxxuh3ocJz"
$env:MINT_ADDRESS="vPtS4ywrbEuufwPkBXsCYkeTBfpzCd6hF52p8kJGt9b"
md-claim <YOUR KEYPAIR FILE PATH>

Command Prompt (cmd.exe):

set AIRDROP_BASE_URL=https://solanavault.github.io/simd-228-vpts-airdrop/proofs
set DISTRIBUTOR_ADDRESS=BAzvEJH5w7igbbkiRLhCD89b1gLtrZz6B9wxxuh3ocJz
set MINT_ADDRESS=vPtS4ywrbEuufwPkBXsCYkeTBfpzCd6hF52p8kJGt9b
md-claim <YOUR KEYPAIR FILE PATH> --url <YOUR RPC>

💻 Alternative: Run from Source

Clone the Repo

git clone https://github.com/SolanaVault/merkle-distributor-claim-cli
cd merkle-distributor-claim-cli

Check Environment Variables
The required variables (AIRDROP_BASE_URL, DISTRIBUTOR_ADDRESS, MINT_ADDRESS) are already included in the .env file.
Build and Run
```
cargo run -- <YOUR KEYPAIR FILE PATH>
```

🔐 Security Notes

If you have a claim key from the campaign, you must use it. There is no option to use the identity key in that case.
The claim key can be used with the CLI or the web interface.
For full transparency, you may inspect the code before signing anything. There is no need to trust blindly—review the GitHub code.
