Nodes

Install

Use our script for a quick installation:

wget -q -O cascadia.sh https://api.nodes.guru/cascadia.sh && chmod +x cascadia.sh && /bin/bash cascadia.sh

Set a name for your node and wait for the installation to complete. After that execute the following command:

source $HOME/.bash_profile

Create a wallet, don’t forget to save the mnemonic.

cascadiad keys add wallet

Convert your Cascadia address to an EVM address.

cascadiad address-converter $(cascadiad keys show wallet -a)

Get tokens in the faucet.
After full synchronization, check the balance, if everything is okay go to the next step.

cascadiad q bank balances $(cascadiad keys show wallet -a)

Create a validator:
Don’t change anything if you don’t understand what you’re doing.

cascadiad tx staking create-validator \
--moniker="$VALIDATOR" \
--amount=1000000000000000000aCC \
--pubkey=$(cascadiad tendermint show-validator) \
--chain-id=$CHAIN_ID \
--commission-max-change-rate=0.01 \
--commission-max-rate=0.20 \
--commission-rate=0.10 \
--min-self-delegation=1 \
--from=wallet \
--gas "auto" \
--gas-adjustment=1.2 \
--gas-prices="7aCC" \
--broadcast-mode block \
--yes

Bond more tokens (if you want increase your validator stake you should bond more to your valoper address):

cascadiad tx staking delegate YOUR_VALOPER_ADDRESS 1000000aCC --from wallet --chain-id $CHAIN_ID --fees 5000aCC
