⚙️ Validator Commands

Create validator

initiad tx mstaking create-validator \
--amount 2000000uinit \
--pubkey $(initiad tendermint show-validator) \
--moniker "$YOUR_MONIKER" \ #Validator name, displayed in explorers.
--identity "" \ #Use your KeyBase ID. If you don't have one, leave it empty.
--website "" \ #Your website is available, or leave the field blank
--details "$YOUR_DETAILS" \ #Any details about your validator.
--chain-id initiation-1 \
--commission-rate 0.05 \
--commission-max-rate 0.20 \
--commission-max-change-rate 0.05 \

You can leave the text after # unchanged - it's a commented hint that won't affect validator creation.

◽ Replace the following values with your own: WALLET - usually it's 'wallet', or your wallet's name. MONIKER - any convenient name for your validator, displayed in the explorer. IDENTITY - validator's avatar, displayed in the explorer. Create a KeyBase ID following the instructions or leave it empty, and it will default to a standard one. DETAILS - details about your validator, also displayed in the explorer.

Replace all necessary values indicated above with the $ sign to successfully create your validator. ◽ Example: 

initiad tx mstaking create-validator \
--amount 2000000uinit \
--pubkey $(initiad tendermint show-validator) \
--moniker "Alex" \ #Validator name, displayed in explorers.
--identity "" \ #Use your KeyBase ID. If you don't have one, leave it empty.
