Prerequisites: Make sure to have Golang >=1.17.

• Download the IDEP client binary iond

git clone https://github.com/IDEP-network/Antora.git

• Add permissions to the binary

sudo chmod +x Antora/iond

• Move/Copy the binary to /usr/local/bin/

cp Antora/iond /usr/local/bin/

• Check the binary commands with

iond -h

Verify that everything is OK. If you get something like the following, you've successfully installed iond on your system.

$ iond version --long
name: Ion
server_name: iond
version: v1.0.0
commit: ""
go: go version go1.18.1 linux/amd64

iond init <moniker> --chain-id Antora
iond keys add <accountname>

• Save the mnemonic
• Find then add your IP address in the external_address field in the config.toml file

external_address=$(curl -s ifconfig.me):26656
sed -i.bak -e "s/^external_address = \"\"/external_address = \"$external_address\"/" $HOME/.ion/config/config.toml

• Next make your way to the nodes config directory, remove the genesis.json and replace it with the one provided in this repo

cd ~/.ion/config/

rm genesis.json
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IDEP-network/Antora/main/genesis.json

export USERNAME=$(whoami)
sudo -E bash -c 'cat << EOF > /etc/systemd/system/iond.service

sudo systemctl enable iond.service
sudo systemctl start iond.service

• Once the Full Node is up and running you can fund your wallet through the faucet https://faucet.idep.network/

• To get your Public Address

iond keys list

• Create a Validator

Before you can create your Validator, your node has to be synced up to the latest block of the chain. You can check this by:

iond status

If catching_up is false you are good to execute:

iond tx staking create-validator \
    --amount 10000000000idep \
    --commission-max-change-rate 0.01 \
    --commission-max-rate 0.2 \
    --commission-rate 0.1 \
    --from <YourWalletAddress> \
    --min-self-delegation 1 \
    --moniker <YourMoniker> \
    --pubkey $(iond tendermint show-validator) \
    --chain-id Antora

Now that everything is setup and ready to go, you can start your node.

iond start

iond tx staking create-validator --amount 15000000000000idep --from idep1d2nqcwf9zz9fx7xlesyt0gc3utfxe2mk6nfwey --pubkey idepvalconspub1zcjduepqztw5yzm5wj0yc600aaemxlmda5488jv9hycxfnta3w7vz9jgpawqc9qnhs --commission-rate 0.01 --commission-max-rate 0.05 --commission-max-change-rate 0.005 --min-self-delegation 1 --chain-id Antora
