Create or Import a Burner Wallet

The burner wallet is a “disposable wallet,” that will be created for your Checker Node Client. The sole purpose of a burner wallet is to receive NFT delegation in order to earn rewards for the Owner wallet of the NFT. Since no on-chain transactions are required from the burner wallet, you do not, and should not transfer any tokens into the burner wallet.

You can either create a new burner wallet or import the wallet from a previous Checker Client.

Linux CLI

  • Create a burner wallet aethir wallet create

    Checker Client CLI - $aethir wallet create
  • Alternatively, import a burner wallet aethir wallet import [private key]

Windows GUI

Navigate to the Wallet tab and click Create Wallet / Import Wallet

Checker Client GUI - Wallet

Register New Burner Wallet

If you create a new burner wallet, the address will not be registered in the Checker System, until an owner initiates the delegation process to that address.

The register process may take up to 5 minutes on the backend after the burner wallet receives a delegation.

There is a rate limit on the register endpoint, allowing one request per minute per IP. Exceeding this limit will result in the IP being blacklisted for the day.

Before the wallet is registered, you:

  • cannot establish websocket connection to the Checker System;

  • cannot use the following commands:

    • aethir license [additional commands][parameters]

    • aethir setting capacity [value]
