Building

To build it in ~/go/bin/bonus-blockd

make build

Joining the testchain

1. Inti the node

bonus-blockd init [node name] --chain-id=blocktopia-01

2. Copy genesis file

rm ~/.bonusblock/config/genesis.json
curl https://bonusblock-testnet.alter.network/genesis? | jq '.result.genesis' > ~/.bonusblock/config/genesis.json

Or copy it from the github repository

3. Add seed node in ~/.bonusblock/config/config.toml -> e5e04918240cfe63e20059a8abcbe62f7eb05036@bonusblock-testnet-p2p.alter.network:26656

4. start the node

bonus-blockd start

The node should sychronize blocks with the rest of the chain, if this step works make the chain into a daemon.

5. Add user to local node

• Existing user:

bonus-blockd keys add [user] --recover

you will be asked for your mnemonic

• New user:

bonus-blockd keys add [user]

You will be given the mnemonic of the new user

6. Add tokens to your account from the faucet - https://faucet.bonusblock.io/

7. Upgrade your node to a validator

bonus-blockd tx staking create-validator --amount=1000000000ubonus --fees=0ubonus --pubkey $(bonus-blockd tendermint show-validator) --moniker="node3" --chain-id=blocktopia-01 --commission-rate="0.10" --commission-max-rate="0.20" --commission-max-change-rate="0.01" --min-self-delegation="1" --gas="auto" --gas-adjustment=1.15 --from=validator
