### Update :&#x20;

```
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
sudo apt install curl git wget htop tmux build-essential jq make lz4 gcc unzip -y
```

### **Go :**&#x20;

```
cd $HOME
VER="1.22.3"
wget "https://golang.org/dl/go$VER.linux-amd64.tar.gz"
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/go
sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf "go$VER.linux-amd64.tar.gz"
rm "go$VER.linux-amd64.tar.gz"
[ ! -f ~/.bash_profile ] && touch ~/.bash_profile
echo "export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin:~/go/bin" >> ~/.bash_profile
source $HOME/.bash_profile
[ ! -d ~/go/bin ] && mkdir -p ~/go/bin
```

### Install Node :

```
cd $HOME
mkdir -p $HOME/.empe-chain/cosmovisor/genesis/bin
wget https://github.com/empe-io/empe-chain-releases/raw/master/v0.2.2/emped_v0.2.2_linux_amd64.tar.gz
tar -xvf emped_v0.2.2_linux_amd64.tar.gz
rm -rf emped_v0.2.2_linux_amd64.tar.gz
chmod +x emped
```

```
mv emped $HOME/.empe-chain/cosmovisor/genesis/bin/
```

```
sudo ln -s $HOME/.empe-chain/cosmovisor/genesis $HOME/.empe-chain/cosmovisor/current -f
sudo ln -s $HOME/.empe-chain/cosmovisor/current/bin/emped /usr/local/bin/emped -f
```

```
go install cosmossdk.io/tools/cosmovisor/cmd/cosmovisor@v1.5.0
```

### Crate A Service :&#x20;

```
sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/emped.service > /dev/null << EOF
[Unit]
Description=empe-chain node service
After=network-online.target

[Service]
User=$USER
ExecStart=$(which cosmovisor) run start
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=10
LimitNOFILE=65535
Environment="DAEMON_HOME=${HOME}/.empe-chain"
Environment="DAEMON_NAME=emped"
Environment="UNSAFE_SKIP_BACKUP=true"
Environment="PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:$HOME/.emped/cosmovisor/current/bin"

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
EOF
```

```
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable emped
```

### **Initialize the node**

```
emped init "your-moniker-name" --chain-id empe-testnet-2
```

### Genesis :&#x20;

```
wget -O $HOME/.empe-chain/config/genesis.json "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/empe-io/empe-chains/master/testnet-2/genesis.json"
wget -O $HOME/.empe-chain/config/addrbook.json "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MictoNode/empe-chain/main/addrbook.json"
```

### GAS

```
sed -i.bak -e "s/^minimum-gas-prices *=.*/minimum-gas-prices = \"0.0001uempe\"/;" ~/.empe-chain/config/app.toml
```

#### Pruning :&#x20;

```
sed -i -e "s/^pruning *=.*/pruning = \"custom\"/" $HOME/.empe-chain/config/app.toml
sed -i -e "s/^pruning-keep-recent *=.*/pruning-keep-recent = \"100\"/" $HOME/.empe-chain/config/app.toml

sed -i "s/^indexer *=.*/indexer = \"null\"/" $HOME/.empe-chain/config/config.toml
```

### Snap :&#x20;

<https://archive-testnet.empe.io> Don't forget to look at the latest file name!

```

```

### 3-2-1 GO !

```
sudo systemctl restart emped
journalctl -fu emped -o cat
```

### Crate Wallet :&#x20;

Change "your-wallet-name"

```
emped keys add your-wallet-name
```

### Faucet :&#x20;

<https://faucet-testnet.empe.io/#/>

### Create Validator :&#x20;

Reminder: You can't create a validator without Sync. You must have to catch the latest block.

```
cd $HOME
```

```
emped tx staking create-validator \
  --amount=1000000uempe \
  --pubkey=$(emped tendermint show-validator) \
  --moniker "moniker" \
  --chain-id=empe-testnet-2 \
  --identity "" \
  --details "" \
  --website "" \
  --commission-max-change-rate=0.01 \
  --commission-max-rate=1.0 \
  --commission-rate=0.05 \
  --min-self-delegation="1" \
  --fees=500uempe \
  --from=wallet-name \
  --node=http://localhost:(whatever you typed in custom_port)57
  -y
```

### Delegation :&#x20;

Change valoper adress -walletname - amount

```
emped tx staking delegate valoper-address amount000000uempe \
--chain-id empe-testnet-2 \
--from "wallet-name" \
--fees 500uempe \
--node=http://localhost:(whatever you typed in custom_port)57
```

Sucsess.

### İf You Want Delete The Empe Node :&#x20;

```
cd $HOME
sudo systemctl stop emped
sudo systemctl disable emped
sudo rm -rf /etc/systemd/system/emped.service
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo rm -f /usr/local/bin/emped
sudo rm -f $(which emped)
sudo rm -rf $HOME/.empe-chain
sed -i "/EMPE_/d" $HOME/.bash_profile
```
