Guide for Validator CLI

#### Create wallet

To create new wallet you can use command below. Don’t forget to save the mnemonic

```
sedad keys add $WALLET
```

To recover your wallet using seed phrase

```
sedad keys add $WALLET --recover
```

Show your wallet list

```
sedad keys list
```

#### Save wallet info

Add wallet and validator address into variables

```
SEDA_WALLET_ADDRESS=$(sedad keys show $WALLET -a)
SEDA_VALOPER_ADDRESS=$(sedad keys show $WALLET --bech val -a)
echo 'export SEDA_WALLET_ADDRESS='${SEDA_WALLET_ADDRESS} >> $HOME/.bash_profile
echo 'export SEDA_VALOPER_ADDRESS='${SEDA_VALOPER_ADDRESS} >> $HOME/.bash_profile
source $HOME/.bash_profile
```

#### Fund your wallet

```
buy some $SEDA on osmosis zone
```

#### Create validator

check your wallet balance:

```
sedad query bank balances $SEDA_WALLET_ADDRESS
```

To create your validator run command below

```
sedad comet show-validator

```

The output will be similar to this (with a different key):

```
{"@type":"/cosmos.crypto.ed25519.PubKey","key":"lR1d7YBVK5jYijOfWVKRFoWCsS4dg3kagT7LB9GnG8I="}
```

Then, create a file named validator.json with the following content:

```
{    
    "pubkey": {"@type":"/cosmos.crypto.ed25519.PubKey","key":"lR1d7YBVK5jYijOfWVKRFoWCsS4dg3kagT7LB9GnG8I="},
    "amount": "1000000000000000000aseda",
    "moniker": "your-node-moniker",
    "identity": "keybase mainnet validator",
    "website": "optional website for your validator",
    "security": "optional security contact for your validator",
    "details": "optional details for your validator",
    "commission-rate": "0.1",
    "commission-max-rate": "0.2",
    "commission-max-change-rate": "0.01",
    "min-self-delegation": "1"
}
```

#### Check your validator key

```
[[ $(sedad q staking validator $SEDA_VALOPER_ADDRESS -oj | jq -r .consensus_pubkey.key) = $(sedad status | jq -r .validator_info.PubKey.value) ]] && echo -e "\n\e[1m\e[32mTrue\e[0m\n" || echo -e "\n\e[1m\e[31mFalse\e[0m\n"
```

#### Get list of validators

```
sedad q staking validators -oj --limit=3000 | jq '.validators[] | select(.status=="BOND_STATUS_BONDED")' | jq -r '(.tokens|tonumber/pow(10; 6)|floor|tostring) + " \t " + .description.moniker' | sort -gr | nl
```
