Wallets

# Create wallet
gitopiad keys add wallet
Create a password for the wallet and write it down so you don't forget it. The wallet has been created. In the last line there will be a phrase that must be written down

# If the wallet was already there, restore it
gitopiad keys add wallet --recover
# Insert the seed phrase from your wallet
# If everything is correct, you will see your wallet data

Go to the # faucet branch and request tokens

# Save the wallet address
# Replace <your_address> with your wallet address
GITOPIA_ADDRESS=<your_address>
echo "export GITOPIA_ADDRESS=$GITOPIA_ADDRESS" >> $HOME/.bash_profile

Validator

Do not forget to create a profile on https://keybase.io/ and set a profile photo there that will be imported by key and used for your validators.

# Change <identity> to your key from keybase
gitopiad tx staking create-validator \
--amount 1000000utlore \
--from=wallet \
--commission-rate "0.05" \
--commission-max-rate "0.20" \

--pubkey=$(gitopiad tendermint show-validator) \
--moniker=$GITOPIA_NODE_NAME \
--chain-id=$GITOPIA_CHAIN_ID \
--fees=5000utlore \
--identity=<identity> \
--details="" \

Check yourself in the list ecsplorer

Or by command

gitopiad query staking validators --limit 1000000 -o json | jq '.validators[] | select(.description.moniker=="$GITOPIA_NODE_NAME")' | jq
