Build Namada binaries

cd $HOME
rm -rf namada
git clone https://github.com/anoma/namada
cd namada
wget https://github.com/anoma/namada/releases/download/v0.31.1/namada-v0.31.1-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz

sudo mv namad* /usr/local/bin/
if [ ! -d "$BASE_DIR" ]; then
    mkdir -p "$BASE_DIR"
fi

Check Namada version

namada --version

Join-network as Full node

namada client utils join-network --chain-id $CHAIN_ID

Create Service file

Enable and start service

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable namadad
sudo systemctl restart namadad && sudo journalctl -u namadad -f

Set Port

sudo ufw default allow outgoing 
sudo ufw default deny incoming 
sudo ufw allow ssh/tcp 
sudo ufw allow 26656/tcp
sudo ufw enable

Create wallet

namadaw gen --alias $WALLET

Restore wallet :

Make sure wallet address is on this list
No Change Alias ($WALLET) & Skip Password (Enter)= Default Address

namadaw derive --alias $WALLET

Find your wallet address

namadaw find --alias $WALLET

Copy the implicit address (starts with tnam...) for the next step

Fund your wallet from faucet1
Fund your wallet from faucet2

After a couple of minutes, the check the balance

namadac balance --owner $WALLET

List known keys and addresses in the wallet

namadaw list

Delete wallet

namadaw remove --alias $WALLET --do-it

Check Sync status, once your node is fully synced, the output from above will say false

curl http://127.0.0.1:26657/status | jq .result.sync_info.catching_up

Initiate a validator

namadac init-validator --commission-rate 0.07 --max-commission-rate-change 1 --signing-keys $WALLET --alias $ALIAS --email <EMAIL_ADDRESS> --account-keys $WALLET --memo $MEMO

Find your established validator address

namadaw list | grep -A 1 "\"$ALIAS\"" | grep "Established"

Replace your Validator address, save and import variables into system

VALIDATOR_ADDRESS=$(namadaw list | grep -A 1 "\"$ALIAS\"" | grep "Established" | awk '{print $3}')
echo "export VALIDATOR_ADDRESS="$VALIDATOR_ADDRESS"" >> $HOME/.bash_profile
source $HOME/.bash_profile

Restart the node and wait for 2 epochs

sudo systemctl restart namadad && sudo journalctl -u namadad -f

Check epoch

namada client epoch

Delegate tokens

namadac bond --validator $ALIAS --source $WALLET --amount 1000 --memo $MEMO

Wait for 3 epochs and check validator is in the consensus set

namadac validator-state --validator $ALIAS

Check your validator bond status

namada client bonds --owner $WALLET

Find your validator status

namada client validator-state --validator $VALIDATOR_ADDRESS

Add stake

namadac bond --source $WALLET --validator $VALIDATOR_ADDRESS --amount 1000

Query the set of validators

namadac bonded-stake

Unbond the tokens

namadac unbond --source $WALLET --validator $VALIDATOR_ADDRESS --amount 1000

Wait for 6 epochs, then check when the unbonded tokens can be withdrawed

namadac bonds --owner $WALLET

Withdraw the unbonded tokens

namadac withdraw --source $WALLET --validator $VALIDATOR_ADDRESS

Send Funds

namada transfer --target <RECEIVER-KEY(tnam1..)> --source $WALLET> --amount 100 --token NAM

UNJAIL validator

namadac unjail-validator --validator $VALIDATOR_ADDRESS

Claim rewards

namadac claim-rewards --validator $VALIDATOR_ADDRESS

Wallet operations

Create test wallets

namada wallet gen --alias ${WALLET}1

namada wallet gen --alias ${WALLET}2

Restore existing wallets

namada wallet derive --alias ${WALLET}1

Find your wallet address

namada wallet find --alias ${WALLET}1

Fund your wallet from faucet1
Fund your wallet from faucet2

After a couple of minutes, the check the balance

Check balance

namada client balance --owner ${WALLET}1

Check keys

namada wallet list

Send payment from your address to other address

namada client transfer --source ${WALLET}1 --target ${WALLET}2 --token NAM --amount 100 --signing-keys ${WALLET}1

Vote

Check consensus state

curl -s localhost:26657/consensus_state | jq .result.round_state.height_vote_set[0].prevotes_bit_array

Full consensus state

curl -s localhost:26657/dump_consensus_state | jq

Your validator votes (prevote)

curl -s http://localhost:26657/dump_consensus_state | jq '.result.round_state.votes[0].prevotes' | grep $(curl -s http://localhost:26657/status | jq -r '.result.validator_info.address[:12]')
