--min-self-delegation "1" \
--pubkey $(sged tendermint show-validator) \
--moniker $NODENAME \
--chain-id $SGE_CHAIN_ID
Check your validator key
[[ $(sged q staking validator $SGE_VALOPER_ADDRESS -oj | jq -r .consensus_pubkey.key) = $(sged status | jq -r .ValidatorInfo.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
sged 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
