Taproot Assets guide

The Taproot assets protocol needs Lightning networks daemon to be running for functionalities such as blockchain monitoring, wallet management etc.

Start LND

Testnet

./lnd-debug --lnddir=/data3/.lnd --configfile=/data3/.lnd/lnd.conf --wallet-unlock-password-file=/data3/.lnd/pass.txt --reset-wallet-transactions

Mainnet

./lnd-debug --lnddir=/data3/.lnd --configfile=/data3/.lnd/lnd-mainnet.conf --wallet-unlock-password-file=/data3/.lnd/pass.txt

Once the LND daemon has synced you can start the TAPD daemon.

Check sync status

Testnet

lncli --macaroonpath=/data3/.lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/testnet/admin.macaroon --tlscertpath=/data3/.lnd/tls.cert getinfo | grep sync

Mainnet

lncli --macaroonpath=/data3/.lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/admin.macaroon --tlscertpath=/data3/.lnd/tls.cert getinfo | grep sync

Start TAPD

Testnet

tapd --network=testnet
--debuglevel=debug
--lnd.host=localhost:10009
--lnd.macaroonpath=/data3/.lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/testnet/admin.macaroon
--lnd.tlspath=/data3/.lnd/tls.cert

Mainnet

tapd --network=mainnet
--debuglevel=debug
--lnd.host=localhost:10003
--lnd.macaroonpath=/data3/.lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/admin.macaroon
--lnd.tlspath=/data3/.lnd/tls.cert

Check wallet balance

lncli --lnddir=/data3/.lnd --macaroonpath=/data3/.lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/testnet/admin.macaroon walletbalance

{
    "total_balance":  "0",
    "confirmed_balance":  "0",
    "unconfirmed_balance":  "0",
    "locked_balance":  "0",
    "reserved_balance_anchor_chan":  "0",
    "account_balance":  {
        "default":  {
            "confirmed_balance":  "0",
            "unconfirmed_balance":  "0"
        }
    }
}

Mint assets

Mainnet

tapcli --macaroonpath=$HOME/.tapd/data/mainnet/admin.macaroon --network=mainnet assets mint --type normal --name testx --supply 1000 --meta_bytes "fantastic money"

Testnet

tapcli --macaroonpath=$HOME/.tapd/data/testnet/admin.macaroon --network=testnet assets mint --type normal --name testx --supply 1000 --meta_bytes "fantastic money"

Finalize

Mainnet

tapcli --macaroonpath=$HOME/.tapd/data/mainnet/admin.macaroon assets mint finalize

Testnet

tapcli --macaroonpath=$HOME/.tapd/data/testnet/admin.macaroon assets mint finalize

RBF

$ lncli --tlscertpath /data3/.lnd/tls.cert --macaroonpath=/data3/.lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/testnet/admin.macaroon wallet bumpfee --sat_per_vbyte 13 9cc51916ac8681b89423d0227de02c7d95b5a58ede9078e4cc152544e8cec501:0
