Spin the full stack, fund a wallet, claim a real testnet tx. End state: admin dashboard open, confirmed tx in the claims table.

Execution Steps

1. Generate a wallet

pnpm generate:wallet

Copy the printed address and private key into .env.

2. Fund the wallet

Visit https://faucet.pos.nimiq-testnet.com and send NIM to your generated address.

3. Boot with local node

docker compose --profile local-node up -d

4. Wait for consensus

docker compose logs -f nimiq
# Wait for "Consensus established"

5. Make a claim

curl -s -X POST http://localhost:8080/v1/claim \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -d '{"address":"NQ02 STQX XESU 2E4S N9X7 GEXD 0VGL Y8PT BQ05"}'

What to expect

A {"status":"broadcast","txId":"..."} response, followed by the claim appearing as "confirmed" in the admin dashboard.
