Hi @julienrbrt it was not found, but I created a PR which I think might fix my issue maybe take a look there.

For those who are wondering how to fix it (For Mac users).

1. Find the location where minid is installed. It can be in either of this directories: ls /usr/local/bin/minid or ls ~/go/bin/minid. I found in here ls ~/go/bin/minid
2. Edit Your Shell Profile. In my case it was ~/.zshrc open -a TextEdit ~/.zshrc
3. Add to PATH: export PATH=$PATH:/Users/username/go/bin add this to the end of file.
4. Apply the changes: source ~/.zshrc
5. To verify that minid is now correctly in your path, you can run: which minid

I have minid command not found, running on Ubuntu 22.04 using zsh.

Having the same issue, what can I do?

[julienrbrt]

You need to add $GOPATH/bin to your $PATH.

[ahmadSaeedGoda]

Well, I just removed the 3rd line from go.mod file:
toolchain go1.21.0

and then it worked like a charm!

Kindly lemme know what do you think about that?!

As I believe that basically the issue was coming from not being able to verify that file using the command: @go mod verify from the Makefile when running make install.

BTW, I am using gvm as a version manager for the GoLang installation.

One more thing you may kindly help me with, What can I do after having a successful installation and starting the chain via minid start? 😀 😁 💯

Please excuse my newbie lack of knowledge, I was just expecting the README file to expose more info 😸 to guide me through the journey or refer to some guidance.
