Warden Protocol. Installing the node

10.09.2024, 17:16

Warden Protocol is an intents-oriented blockchain built on the Cosmos SDK.

Features

Among its key features are:

Intents: goal-oriented transactions.
Keychains: flexible key management.
EVM and WASM support for smart contracts.

These features create attractive opportunities for both developers and users of the blockchain ecosystem. The Warden Protocol encourages open and permissionless innovation by enabling secure, intents-based cross-chain interactions.

The protocol leverages the modularity of Cosmos and IBC to create interoperable blockchain solutions. The focus is on mitigating the risks of losing asset management and simplifying the integration of different key management solutions, greatly enhancing security and user control over digital assets.

Minimum hardware requirements:

Node type	CPU	RAM	Storage
Testnet	4	8GB	150GB

Creating a validator

Create a new validator using the following command:

Get the public key

wardend tendermint show-validator --home /root/.warden

Navigate to the home directory

cd $HOME
nano validator.json

Fill in validator.json with the following:

{
  "pubkey": {"#pubkey"},
  "amount": "1000000uward",
  "moniker": "STAVR_guide",
  "identity": "",
  "website": "",
  "security": "",
  "details": "",
  "commission-rate": "0.05",
  "commission-max-rate": "0.2",
  "commission-max-change-rate": "0.2",
  "min-self-delegation": "1"
}

Then run the command to create the validator:

wardend --home $HOME/.warden tx staking create-validator $HOME/validator.json --from WalletName --chain-id buenavista-1 --fees 500uward -y
