Install

Use our script for a quick installation:

wget -q -O namada.sh https://api.nodes.guru/namada.sh && sudo chmod +x namada.sh && ./namada.sh

Set a name for your node and wait for the installation to complete. After full sync go to the next step:

source $HOME/.bash_profile

Create a wallet:

namada wallet gen --alias my-account

You can also restore your old wallet using the command:

namada wallet derive --alias my-account

You can find out your wallet address using the command:

namada wallet find --alias my-account

Get tokens in the faucet. Check balance, if everything is okay go to the next step:

namada client balance --token NAAN --owner my-account

Initialising a validator account:

namada client init-validator \  --alias $VALIDATOR_ALIAS \  --email $EMAIL \  --account-keys my-account \  --signing-keys my-account \  --commission-rate 0.1 \  --max-commission-rate-change 0.1

Bond token to your validator:

namada client bond \  --validator $VALIDATOR_ALIAS \  --amount 999 \  --source my-account

If you get an error “The address doesn’t belong to any known validator account” try again in a few epochs.
