All information about testnet incentives and challenges you can find here
Official documentation:
To generate gentx for torii-1 testnet please navigate to Generate gentx for torii-1 incentivized testnet
To set up monitoring for your validator node navigate to Set up monitoring and alerting for Archway validator
To migrate your validator to another machine read Migrate your validator to another machine
You can setup your archway fullnode in few minutes by using automated script below. It will prompt you to input your validator node name!
wget -O archway.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kj89/testnet_manuals/main/archway/archway.sh && chmod +x archway.sh && ./archway.sh
You can follow manual guide if you better prefer setting up node manually
When installation is finished please load variables into system
source $HOME/.bash_profile
Next you have to make sure your validator is syncing blocks. You can use command below to check synchronization status
archwayd status 2>&1 | jq .SyncInfo
To create new wallet you can use command below. Don’t forget to save the mnemonic
archwayd keys add $WALLET
(OPTIONAL) To recover your wallet using seed phrase
archwayd keys add $WALLET --recover
To get current list of wallets
archwayd keys list
Add wallet address
WALLET_ADDRESS=$(archwayd keys show $WALLET -a)
Add valoper address
VALOPER_ADDRESS=$(archwayd keys show $WALLET --bech val -a)
Load variables into system
echo 'export WALLET_ADDRESS='${WALLET_ADDRESS} >> $HOME/.bash_profile
echo 'export VALOPER_ADDRESS='${VALOPER_ADDRESS} >> $HOME/.bash_profile
source $HOME/.bash_profile
Currently there are two options of getting tokens in torii-1 testnet
- Get 3 torii using your twitter account
- navigate to https://stakely.io/en/faucet/archway-testnet
- input your wallet address and click verify
- then press tweet button and wait for faucet to process your tweet
Please note: to mitigate against spam accounts, the Stakely faucet will discard requests from users with Twitter accounts with very little activity or that are too new!
- Get 3 torii using your twitter account
- navigate to https://faucet.torii-1.archway.tech/ui/
- input your wallet address and click
Get Fund
Before creating validator please make sure that you have at least 1 torii (1 torii is equal to 1000000 utorii) and your node is synchronized
To check your wallet balance:
archwayd query bank balances $WALLET_ADDRESS
If your wallet does not show any balance than probably your node is still syncing. Please wait until it finish to synchronize and then continue
To create your validator run command below
archwayd tx staking create-validator \
--amount 1000000utorii \
--from $WALLET \
--commission-max-change-rate "0.01" \
--commission-max-rate "0.2" \
--commission-rate "0.07" \
--min-self-delegation "1" \
--pubkey $(archwayd tendermint show-validator) \
--moniker $NODENAME \
--chain-id $CHAIN_ID
To protect you keys please make sure you follow basic security rules
Good tutorial on how to set up ssh keys for authentication to your server can be found here
Start by checking the status of ufw.
sudo ufw status
Sets the default to allow outgoing connections, deny all incoming except ssh and 26656. Limit SSH login attempts
sudo ufw default allow outgoing
sudo ufw default deny incoming
sudo ufw allow ssh/tcp
sudo ufw limit ssh/tcp
sudo ufw allow 26656,26660/tcp
sudo ufw enable
To monitor and get alerted about your validator health status you can use my guide on Set up monitoring and alerting for Archway validator
Check logs
journalctl -fu archwayd -o cat
Start service
systemctl start archwayd
Stop service
systemctl stop archwayd
Restart service
systemctl restart archwayd
Synchronization info
archwayd status 2>&1 | jq .SyncInfo
Validator info
archwayd status 2>&1 | jq .ValidatorInfo
Node info
archwayd status 2>&1 | jq .NodeInfo
Show node id
archwayd tendermint show-node-id
List of wallets
archwayd keys list
Recover wallet
archwayd keys add $WALLET --recover
Delete wallet
archwayd keys delete $WALLET
Get wallet balance
archwayd query bank balances $WALLET_ADDRESS
Transfer funds
archwayd tx bank send $WALLET_ADDRESS <TO_WALLET_ADDRESS> 10000000utorii
Delegate stake
archwayd tx staking delegate $VALOPER_ADDRESS 10000000utorii --from=$WALLET --chain-id=$CHAIN_ID --gas=auto
Redelegate stake from validator to another validator
archwayd tx staking redelegate <srcValidatorAddress> <destValidatorAddress> 10000000utorii --from=$WALLET --chain-id=$CHAIN_ID --gas=auto
Withdraw all rewards
archwayd tx distribution withdraw-all-rewards --from=$WALLET --chain-id=$CHAIN_ID --gas=auto
Withdraw rewards with commision
archwayd tx distribution withdraw-rewards $VALOPER_ADDRESS --from=$WALLET --commission --chain-id=$CHAIN_ID
Edit validator
archwayd tx staking edit-validator \
--moniker=$NODENAME \
--identity=<your_keybase_id> \
--website="<your_website>" \
--details="<your_validator_description>" \
--chain-id=$CHAIN_ID \
--from=$WALLET
Unjail validator
archwayd tx slashing unjail \
--broadcast-mode=block \
--from=$WALLET \
--chain-id=$CHAIN_ID \
--gas=auto
This commands will completely remove node from server. Use at your own risk!
