```

```
docker run -v %cd%:/root --rm -i --platform linux/amd64 %CONTAINER_IMAGE% init /root/genesis.json
```

**Create Mining Wallet Address**

```
docker run -v %cd%:/root --rm -i --platform linux/amd64 %CONTAINER_IMAGE% account new
```

get MINING\_WALLET\_ADDRESS after "Public address of the key:" appear.&#x20;

```
set MINING_WALLET_ADDRESS=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
```

**Run the Docker**

```
docker kill %CONTAINER_NAME_PREFIX%-%NODE_ROLE%
```

```
docker rm %CONTAINER_NAME_PREFIX%-%NODE_ROLE%
```

```
docker run -d --name %CONTAINER_NAME_PREFIX%-%NODE_ROLE% -v %cd%:/root --platform linux/amd64 -p 30303:30303 -p 30303:30303/udp %CONTAINER_IMAGE% --port=30303 --mine --miner.threads=1 --miner.etherbase %MINING_WALLET_ADDRESS% --networkid=%NETWORK_ID% --bootnodes=%BOOTNODE_URL%
```

```
docker run -v %cd%:/root --rm -i --platform linux/amd64 %CONTAINER_IMAGE% attach --exec "admin.peers"
```

**Check Mining Balance**

```
docker run -v %cd%:/root --rm -i --platform linux/amd64 %CONTAINER_IMAGE% attach --exec "eth.getBalance('xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx')"
```

*replace with MINING\_WALLET\_ADDRESS you obtained*

**Sync Data**

```
docker run -v %cd%:/root --rm -i --platform linux/amd64 %CONTAINER_IMAGE% attach --exec "eth.Sync"
```

**Import Mining Wallet to Metamask**

Enter into The Docker Desktop CLI. Then open The Terminal

If you don't use this method, type in the previous cmd:&#x20;

```
sudo docker exec -it berylbit-node-miner /bin/sh
```

```
ls /root/.ethereum/keystore/
```

```
cat /root/.ethereum/keystore/UTC...
```

(click TAB button to complete UTC file)

Copy Paste everything from UTC to a new file and rename it with wallet.jsonfile contents should be: `{"address":"57xxxxxxxxxblablabla","crypto":{"cipher":"aes-128-ctr.......}})`

Install Metamask Add-On in the browser.

Create a new Metamask account, then add the BRB Mainnet network.

Add account, by selecting Json File, then upload wallet.json and wait about 5-7 minutes.
