Guide for Validator CLI
Create wallet
To create new wallet you can use command below. Don’t forget to save the mnemonic
junctiond keys add $WALLET
To recover your wallet using seed phrase
junctiond keys add $WALLET --recover
Show your wallet list
Save wallet info
Add wallet and validator address into variables
AIRCHAINS_WALLET_ADDRESS=$(junctiond keys show $WALLET -a)
AIRCHAINS_VALOPER_ADDRESS=$(junctiond keys show $WALLET --bech val -a)
echo 'export AIRCHAINS_WALLET_ADDRESS='${AIRCHAINS_WALLET_ADDRESS} >> $HOME/.bash_profile
echo 'export AIRCHAINS_VALOPER_ADDRESS='${AIRCHAINS_VALOPER_ADDRESS} >> $HOME/.bash_profile
source $HOME/.bash_profile
Fund your wallet

Create validator
To create your validator run command below
junctiond comet show-validator
The output will be similar to this (with a different key) "pubkey":
{"@type":"/cosmos.crypto.ed25519.PubKey","key":"xxxxxxxx"}
Then, create a file named validator.json with the following content:
{
"pubkey": {"@type":"/cosmos.crypto.ed25519.PubKey","key":"xxxxxxx"},
"amount": "1000000amf",
"moniker": "your-node-moniker",
"identity": "airchain testnet 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"
}
Finally, we're ready to submit the transaction to create the validator:
junctiond tx staking create-validator validator.json \
--from=$WALLET \
--chain-id=$AIRCHAINS_CHAIN_ID \
--fees=200amf
Check your validator key
[[ $(junctiond q staking validator $AIRCHAINS_VALOPER_ADDRESS -oj | jq -r .consensus_pubkey.key) = $(junctiond 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
junctiond 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
