The vesting precompile manages token vesting. Vesting locks tokens for a period of time and releases them to a beneficiary over time. This page shows how to load the precompile in Remix and call it directly. It works on both the peaq and agung networks.

​
Prerequisites

  • Basic understanding of blockchain, EVM, and vesting concepts.
  • Using the Remix IDE with MetaMask configured to interact with a peaq network.
  • You have token funds available in the wallet connected to a peaq network.

​
Instructions

​
1. Setup Remix IDE

  • Open the Remix website.
  • Create a new blank workspace for the precompiles.

​
2. Create a New File

  • In your Remix workspace, create a new file named vesting.sol.
  • Copy the content of the vesting precompile file from the peaq network node precompile page and paste it into the vesting.sol file. The precompile is found at the peaq node source code.

​
3. Compile the Contract

  • Compile the vesting.sol file by clicking on the Solidity Compiler tab and selecting the appropriate compiler version.
  • Ensure the compilation is successful and generates the ABI file needed for interacting with the smart contract.

​
4. Deploy and Interact with the Contract

  1. Under the Deploy and Run Transactions tab, set the environment to Browser Extension and pick MetaMask.
  2. Ensure your chain ID matches the selected network (peaq/agung).
  3. Choose the account with sufficient token funds.
  4. Set the contract address to 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000808 (found at the top of the copied file).
  5. Click At Address to load the deployed contract into the interface.

​
5. Interact with the Functions
