Re: Zero - Starting Cosmos Blocks From Zero

The goal of this workshop is to run a single validator testnet on your local environment.

0. Pre-req

• Have go installed to the latest version

1. Clone Osmosis repo, build binary

Although in this workshop we would be practicing with Osmosis repo, keep in mind that the same commands apply to all other cosmos-sdk chains.

git clone https://github.com/osmosis-labs/osmosis.git
cd osmosis

make install
make build

2. Initialize genesis.json file that would se the initial state of chain

osmosisd init my-node --chain-id my-chain

3. Create key for your validator account

osmosisd keys add my-account --keyring-backend=test

Daemon uses keychains to manage keys: the keyring-backend test flag enables us to use the keyrings in the test mode

4. Add genesis account

One of the essential step in starting a chain is to have an account that the chain would start with. Why would we need to have a genesis account? - validators and blocks!

osmosisd add-genesis-account $(./osmosisd keys show my-account -a --keyring-backend=test) 1000000000000uatom,100000000000uosmo,100000000000uion,100000000000valtoken,100000000000stake,10000foo,10000bar --keyring-backend=test

5. Create gentx (with validator starting delegation amount)

./osmosisd gentx my-account 10000000000stake --chain-id my-chain --keyring-backend=test

Gen tx is a set of transactions where it is executed in block height 0 to create appropriate state at the start of the chain.

The amount specified is the amount we will have staked from our account.

Running this command generates a json file in our home directory(~/.osmosisd)

6. Collect gentx

./osmosisd collect-gentxs

In practice, we would collect the gentx json file created from different “validators”. Then we run this command, in which then cosmos sdk would create initial state off of the genesis transactions.

7. LFG!

8. Check your rewards instantly!

9. Check my balance(before claiming my rewards):

osmosisd q bank balances osmo155248g4ck8ugjqjgapk4zn0arnjt6sepsn4zgq

10. Claim my rewards:
