Create validator

Export private key

By default, when you run story init a validator key is created for you. To view your validator key, run the following command:

story validator export

In addition, if you want to export the derived EVM private key of your validator into the default data config directory, please run the following:

story validator export --export-evm-key

*Important: Please keep your private key in a safe place

Your EVM Private Key saved to: /root/.story/story/config/private_key.txt

Note that to participate in consensus, at least 1024 IP must be staked (equivalent to 1024000000000000000000 wei )!

story validator create \

  --moniker "your moniker" \
  --rpc https://aeneid.storyrpc.io \
  --chain-id 1315

Backup the validator key:

File location: /root/.story/story/config/priv_validator_key.json

Copy this file to your local machine.

Store it carefully; this is the most crucial key for your validator.
