Kiln is a staking platform you can use to stake directly, or whitelabel staking into your product.

We enable you or your clients to stake crypto assets, manually or programmatically, while maintaining custody of your funds in your existing solution, such Fireblocks, Copper, or Ledger.

In these docs, we will take you through how to do all that.

Happy integration, and don't hesitate to reach out to us if you have any questions!

Product architecture

• Kiln Dashboard enables you to stake in 1-click, monitor your rewards and manage your team and organisation accounts.

• Kiln Widget enables platforms to launch a fully branded decentralized application (dApp) or seamlessly embed it into any web-based interface. With the Kiln Widget editor, platforms can customize their earn sections to perfectly align with their unique brand, providing both flexibility and a personalized user experience.

• Kiln dApp enables you to connect your wallet and stake in a single click

• Kiln Onchain enables you to offer Ethereum staking via a set of smart-contracts, with fully automated onchain rewards and commission management and a marketplace of integrated node operators. It is built in a modular way to enable you to offer dedicated (multiples of 32 ETH) or pooled (any amount) staking, and to issue a dedicated liquid staking token or not based on your requirements.

• Kiln DeFi enables native integration of DeFi protocols into their wallets or platforms while also earning fees. The solution is 100% on-chain, fully automated, and provides a simplified integration. Utilize the Kiln API for native integration directly within your platform or customize our widget to fit your needs.

• Kiln Connect enables you to programmatically manage your staking accounts, craft staking and unstaking transaction, sign and broadcast with your custodian, and pull rewards and monitoring data for each stake you made. Kiln Connect is realtime and network-wide/validator-agnostic, meaning you do not need to stake with Kiln Validators to benefit from it!

• Kiln Validators are the base of our platform, running and securing the network on all the blockchains we support.

Note that Onchain, Dashboard and Connect are validator-agnostic, meaning they are compatible with your in-house or 3rd party validators.

A new consolidation feature will let you convert skimming validators to compounding validators and merge them into target compounding validators. These consolidation requests are sent from the execution layer to a special smart contract with fee mechanisms to prevent DDoS attacks. To consolidate validators, you must control the withdrawal credentials of the source validators, and only compounding validators can be targets. There is one exception: when converting a single skimming validator to a compounding validator, you can send a consolidation request using the same validator as both source and target.

Enable compounding

You can enable compounding for any of your skimming validators through a consolidation request that uses the same validator as both source and target.

When connected to Kiln Dashboard, navigate to the Ethereum → Reporting page of your account. By hovering over an active Ethereum skimming validator, you’ll see the Enable Compounding option appear.

From the Enable Compounding page, select a skimming validator to enable compounding. To finalize, connect your wallet holding the withdrawal key and click Enable compounding to initiate the consolidation operation. Once the transaction is signed and broadcast, it will enter the consolidation on‑chain queue for execution by the consensus layer.

Dashboard pro tips

Get a validator next skimming event

In the Ethereum validator table in the reporting page, you can hover the reward amount on each line to see the estimated next skimming date and amount for each of your validators.

Native EigenLayer Restaking - Reporting in the dashboard

When your stakes are related to an EigenLayer position, the Ethereum page will be updated with an EigenLayer section and your stakes will be showing an EigenLayer Logo if they are related to an EigenPod.

Reporting capabilities :

• Total points across your EigenPod are displayed on the top of the section, the breakdown is visible in the table bellow the key metrics.

• Total restaked balance :

  • Display the amount locked in your Eigenpods

  • note : if some of your balance is not yet it will still be included in this balance, we are computing it based on the validators linked to your EigenPods.

• Total available balance :

  • Is the balance you can request to withdraw from your EigenPod, it's generally CL rewards or Exited validators. To request withdraw, hover one EigenPod and click "Request Withdraw".

  • There is a 7-day queue to fulfill a withdraw request.

• Withdraw balance :

  • This balance displays the amount you requested to withdraw, you will be able to see the amount that is in the withdraw queue under pending and in ready the amount that you can withdraw. To fulfill a withdraw request that is ready, hover one EigenPod and click "Withdraw".

Please refer to the to learn more about other possible operations your can trigger when you over an EigenPod : Restake, Delegate, Request Withdraw, Withdraw.

Importing EigenPods for reporting :

• When you click "Import Stakes" on top of the stakes table, then make sure you selected the By EigenPod option so that you can import stakes using your EigenPod Address, this way you can have reporting across multiple EigenPod in one view.

Overview

1. Install the SDK

The Kiln Connect SDK is only available in TS/JS for now, if you have other programming language requirements, please contact the support.

# using bun
bun install @kilnfi/sdk​

2. Retrieve your Kiln API key

Create an application on your Kiln Dashboard, and retrieve the given API key.

The API key is used to authenticate with the Kiln REST API which can manage Kiln accounts, craft transactions, and provide reporting data.

3. Set up Fireblocks (required to sign transactions)

In the case that you would like to craft and sign transactions with your Fireblocks vault, you will need to setup the following in Fireblocks:

1. The raw signing feature is required on all protocols except on EVM compatible protocols (ETH, MATIC). Make sure that it is enabled in your workspace in case you wish to stake on other protocols. You can ask the Fireblocks support for information.

2. Create an API user using the Fireblocks tutorial here with the Editor role (minimum privilege to initiate transactions on the workspace). This might require that you contact your Fireblocks support.

3. Generate the CSR certificate and make sure you store it somewhere safe.

4. Get the API key of the user by clicking on "Copy API key" of the user in the workspace members list

5. Get the vault account id you want to stake with by clicking on it in your Fireblocks workspace and check the URL. For example the vault id of https://console.fireblocks.io/v2/accounts/vault/4 is '4'.

4. Configure the SDK

You can now configure the SDK with you Kiln API token.​

import { Kiln } from '@kilnfi/sdk';
import fs from "node:fs";

// Fireblocks secret key
const apiSecret = fs.readFileSync(__dirname + '/fireblocks_secret.key', 'utf8');

const k = new Kiln({
    baseUrl: 'https://api.kiln.fi',
    apiToken: 'KILN_API_KEY',
});


const tx = await k.client.POST(
  '/v1/near/transaction/stake',
  {
    body: {
      account_id: 'd3f1b917-72b1-4982-a4dd-93fce579a708',
      wallet: 'c36b1a5da2e60d1fd5d3a6b46f7399eb26571457f3272f3c978bc9527ad2335f',
      pool_id: 'kiln.pool.f863973.m0',
      amount_yocto: '1000000000000000000000000',
    }
  }
);

const signResponse = await k.fireblocks.signNearTx(vault, tx.data.data, "NEAR_TEST");

const broadcastedTx = await k.client.POST("/v1/near/transaction/broadcast", {
  body: {
    signed_tx_serialized: signResponse.signed_tx.data.signed_tx_serialized,
  }
});

Native EigenLayer Restaking - Step-by-Step

Setup in the dashboard

As shown in the demo video below, ensure you select the "EigenLayer restaking" checkbox in the ETH staking widget of Kiln Dashboard.

Step required to start restaking on EigenLayer

1. Deploy an EigenPod. One EigenPod is needed for each wallet to manage your native restaked position. This pod will also receive CL rewards and the balance from exited validators.

   • Note: This EigenPod can be re-used for several validators.

2. Deploy validators with this EigenPod set as the withdrawal credentials.

   • Note: it is not possible to change the withdrawal credentials of an already-live validator, you will need to exit your validator and restake on a new one to change them.

Activate your restaking position

Once your validator is in the consensus layer entry queue, you're required to upload a proof to the EigenLayer contract for each validator.

In the reporting section, you will be able to see your EigenPod in status Restakable. Hover the right part of the row to display the quick action buttons, click "Restake" to start restaking.

The restake validator modal will open, connect with your right wallet and then click "Enable Restaking". Kiln's API will generate the needed EigenLayer Proofs and will prepare the right transaction to prove your validators.

Delegate your EigenPod to Kiln

You can delegate your EigenPod by clicking on the Delegate action button on the EigenPod. You will be able to see the status updated and the active validator, in our case Kiln.

Congrats, you have now natively restaked, and your validator is helping secure EigenLayer AVSs and earning corresponding rewards.

To go further, you can explore the EigenLayer Reporting documentation and the EigenLayer Withdraw flow.

Behind the scenes

To restake an Ethereum validators on the EigenLayer platform, the withdrawal_credentials address of the validator are set to an EigenPod Contract address. EigenPod is a contract deployed per restaker address, one address = one pod maximum. This is all handled by the Dashboard.

Rewards earned on DYDX are DYDX-USDC. In this tutorial we will present how to bridge these rewards to Ethereum or to Osmosis using the Kiln SDK. These flows can be done directly from if you are using Fireblocks.

Bridge to Ethereum

The goal of this bridge is to bring your dYdX rewards in USDC on your ETH address so that you can use them for other purposes like depositing them on a centralized exchange to get some dYdX back.

To convert your DYDX-USDC to USDC on Ethereum, we will use the developed by Circle, which is the recommended on-chain approach.

There is 3 steps to this flow:

1) Transfer the USDC from DYDX to the Noble chain

2) Burn the USDC on Noble

3) Mint the USDC on Ethereum

Here is a TypeScript code snippet that you can use:

Bridge to Osmosis

The goal of this bridge is to bring your dYdX rewards in USDC on another cosmos address here on Osmosis so that you can use them for other purposes like depositing them on a centralized exchange or a Swap on Osmosis to get some dYdX back.

This flow follows two steps:

1) Transfer the DYDX-USDC to the Noble chain

2) Transfer the USDC on Noble to Osmosis
