Prerequisites

• Othentic CLI installed

• Access to AVS governance multisig owner

• L1/L2 chain name where rewards are configured. Find the corresponding values for the Supported chains here.

For Eigen Rewards v2, the calc-eigen-rewards-params command in Distribute Rewards Guide outputs the total reward amount required for your AVS across all reward batches. Use this value to determine how much you need to deposit before proceeding with reward distribution.

Run the following command:

othentic-cli network rewards deposit --l1-chain <chain> --amount <amount>

Use --browser-sign flag for the browser wallets support like SAFE Multisig.

2. Using Contracts

You can directly deposit rewards into the L1/L2 AVS Treasury using contract methods.

1

Get Reward Token Address

Retrieve the Reward Token address, set during the AVS contracts deployment.

2

Approve Token Transfer (ERC20)

In case the Rewards token is ERC20, approve the token transfer to the AVS Treasury contract.

const approveTx = await rewardTokenSmartContract.approve(
      avsTreasuryContractAddress,
      amount
    ); 

3

Deposit Rewards

Execute depositNative or depositERC20 on the AVS Treasury contract, with the desired amount.

const depositTx = await avsTreasuryContract.depositERC20(senderAddress, amount); 

// For ETH deposits 
const depositTx = await avsTreasuryContract.depositNative({ value: amount }) 

depositERC20 and depositNative

Once the transaction is confirmed, the deposit is complete.
