Give your validator a name by which you can find yourself in explorer, put it in ""
After that, insert the following node installation command
Follow the commands to check if your node is working properly
Check version
View sync status
Blocks left - 0-1
everything is fine and your node catches up with the last block of the network.

If the node has synchronized and the tokens have arrived in the wallet, create a validator with the command below.
If you have successfully created a validator, be sure to save your validator.
Show priv_validator_key.json
SAVE YOUR PRIVATE KEY AFTER ENTERING THE COMMAND The priv_validator_key.json is the key with which you can always restore the operation of your validator, so keep it and in case of reinstallation/transfer of the validator to another server - transfer it too.
Also remember, if you are a validator with a sufficient number of delegated tokens and you are in an active set, signing blocks, always save priv_validator_state.json - this file contains information about the signed blocks of your validators, and in case of restoring the validator after reinstallation or on another server , this file won't give you the old blocks again, otherwise you'll end up in jail with no way out 💡 Hint:
View private key: cat $HOME/.oraid/config/priv_validator_key.json
View private state: cat $HOME/.oraid/config/priv_validator_key.json
Private key directory: $HOME/.oraid/config/priv_validator_key.json
Validator state directory: $HOME/.oraid/data/priv_validator_state.json
