ethstaker-deposit-cli is a tool for creating EIP-2335 format BLS12-381 keystores and a corresponding deposit_data*.json file for Ethereum Staking Launchpad. One can also provide a keystore file to generate a signed_exit_transaction*.json file to be broadcast at a later date to exit a validator.
- Warning: Please generate your keystores on your own safe, completely offline device.
- Warning: Please backup your mnemonic, keystores, and password securely.
Please read Launchpad Validator FAQs before generating the keys.

Ethstaker confirms the canonical Ethereum staking deposit contract addresses and launchpad URLs. Please be sure that your ETH is deposited only to this deposit contract address, depending on chain.
Depositing to the wrong address will lose you your ETH.
