Create Validator
How to convert a Full Node to a Validator Node
This section assumes that:
You've successfully setup a Full Node
You've joined one of the Xion Networks and have synced the chain
You've funded a wallet on the Full Node
Run the Create Validator command
We provide a sample snippet which will create a new Validator:
$ xiond tx staking create-validator \
--amount "5000000uxion" \
--pubkey $(xiond tendermint show-validator) \
--moniker "copypaste.com" \
--identity "my-keybase-id" \
--security-contact "[email protected]" \
--website "www.copypaste.com" \
--details "I copy-pasted this command." \
--chain-id "xion-testnet-2" \
--commission-rate "0.05" \
--commission-max-rate "0.25" \
--commission-max-change-rate "0.1" \
--min-self-delegation "1" \
--gas "auto" \
--gas-prices "0.025uxion" \
--gas-adjustment 1.2 \
--from my-wallet-name \
--keyring-backend test \
--home /home/xiond/.xiond
Confirm that your Validator is Active
If running the following command returns something, your validator is active:
$ xiond query tendermint-validator-set | grep "$(xiond tendermint show-validator)"
