Initia

A simplified manual for running an Initia node.

prerequisite

  • CPU: 16 Cores
  • Memory: 16GB RAM
  • Disk: 2TB SSD*
  • Machine: Ubuntu 22.04+

script execution

Use the following script to install the node:

wget -O initia.sh https://api.denodes.xyz/initia.sh && bash initia.sh

After installation, wait for full synchronization. The command below should return false:

curl -s localhost:26657/status | jq .result.sync_info.catching_up

wallet & faucet

Next, proceed to create a wallet and show its address:

source $HOME/.bash_profile

Create new wallet:

initiad keys add $WALLET

Be sure to keep the mnemonic in a secure place.

Restore existing wallet:

initiad keys add $WALLET --recover

Let's save the wallet address and the validator address:

WALLET_ADDRESS=$(initiad keys show $WALLET -a)
echo "export WALLET_ADDRESS="$WALLET_ADDRESS >> $HOME/.bash_profile
source $HOME/.bash_profile

Request test tokens from the Faucet for this address. Then, check your balance:

initiad q bank balances $WALLET_ADDRESS

validator initialization

Initialising a validator account:

initiad tx mstaking create-validator \
  --amount 1000000uinit \
  --pubkey $(initiad tendermint show-validator) \
  --moniker $MONIKER \
  --details "YOUR VALIDATOR DESCRIPTION (OPTIONAL)" \
  --website "YOUR WEBSITE (OPTIONAL)" \
  --chain-id initiation-1 \
  --commission-rate 0.07 \
  --commission-max-rate 0.20 \
  --commission-max-change-rate 0.05 \
  --from $WALLET \
  --fees 90000uinit \
  --gas auto \
  -y

Useful Commands

Edit validator details:

initiad tx mstaking edit-validator \
  --commission-rate 0.08 \
  --new-moniker "$MONIKER" \
  --identity "NEW IDENTITY" \
  --details "NEW DESCRIPTION" \
  --from $WALLET \
  --chain-id initiation-1 \
  --fees 90000uinit \
  --gas auto \
  -y

Unjail validator:

initiad tx slashing unjail --from $WALLET --chain-id initiation-1 --gas auto --fees 90000uinit -y

Vote proposal:

initiad tx gov vote 1 yes --from $WALLET --chain-id initiation-1  --gas auto --fees 90000uinit -y

Withdraw all rewards:

initiad tx distribution withdraw-all-rewards --from $WALLET --chain-id initiation-1 --gas auto --fees 90000uinit -y

Withdraw rewards and commission from your validator:

initiad tx distribution withdraw-rewards $(initiad keys show $WALLET --bech val -a) --from $WALLET --commission --chain-id initiation-1 --gas auto --fees 90000uinit -y

Delegate more tokens to yourself:

initiad tx mstaking delegate $(initiad keys show $WALLET --bech val -a) 1000000uinit --from $WALLET --chain-id initiation-1 --gas auto --fees 90000uinit -y

Delegate tokens to another validator:

initiad tx mstaking delegate <TO_VALOPER_ADDRESS> 1000000uinit --from $WALLET --chain-id initiation-1 --gas auto --fees 90000uinit -y

Redelegate tokens from one validator to another:

initiad tx mstaking redelegate <FROM_VALOPER_ADDRESS> <TO_VALOPER_ADDRESS> 1000000uinit --from $WALLET --chain-id initiation-1 --gas auto --fees 90000uinit -y

Transfer tokens to another address:

initiad tx bank send $(initiad keys show $WALLET -a) <TO_WALLET_ADDRESS> 1000000uinit --gas auto --fees 90000uinit -y

Here are some handy commands:

  • Check logs: sudo journalctl -u initiad -f
  • Restart your node: sudo systemctl restart initiad
  • Check a wallet balance: initiad q bank balances $WALLET_ADDRESS
  • Check sync status: curl -s localhost:26657/status | jq .result.sync_info.catching_up

Deleting Your Node

sudo systemctl stop initiad
sudo systemctl disable initiad
sudo rm -rf /etc/systemd/system/initiad.service
sudo systemctl stop slinkyd
sudo systemctl disable slinkyd
sudo rm -rf /etc/systemd/system/slinkyd.service
sudo rm $(which initiad)
sudo rm $(which slinky)
sudo rm -rf ~/.initia
sudo rm -rf ~/.slinky
sudo rm -rf ~/initia
sudo rm -rf ~/slinky
