+# wakustealthcommitments
+
+This application/tool/protocol is used to securely communicate requests and responses for the [Stealth Address Scheme](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-5564)
+
+Uses TWN config as default, and content topic: `/wakustealthcommitments/1/app/proto`
+
+## Usage
+
+1. Clone the erc-5564-bn254 repo and build the static lib
+```sh
+gh repo clone rymnc/erc-5564-bn254
+cd erc-5564-bn254
+cargo build --release --all-features
+cp ./target/release/liberc_5564_bn254.a <path-to-nwaku>
+```
+
+> ![NOTE]
+> This static library also includes the rln ffi library, so you don't need to build it separately.
+> This is because using both of them separately brings in a lot of duplicate symbols.
+
+2. Build the wakustealthcommitments app
+```sh
+cd <path-to-nwaku>
+source env.sh
+nim c --out:build/wakustealthcommitments  --verbosity:0 --hints:off -d:chronicles_log_level=INFO -d:git_version="v0.24.0-rc.0-62-g7da25c" -d:release --passL:-lm --passL:liberc_5564_bn254.a --debugger:native examples/wakustealthcommitments/wakustealthcommitments.nim
+```
+
+3. 
+```sh
+./build/wakustealthcommitments \
+    --rln-relay-eth-client-address:<insert http rpc url> \
+    --rln-relay-cred-path:<path-to-credentials-file> \
+    --rln-relay-cred-password:<password-of-credentials-file>
+```
+
+This service listens for requests for stealth commitment/address generation, 
+partakes in the generation of said stealth commitment and then distributes the response to the mesh.
