sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y

### Install GO <a href="#install-go" id="install-go"></a>

if ! \[ -x "$(command -v go)" ]; thenver="1.19.3"cd $HOMEwget "<https://golang.org/dl/go$ver.linux-amd64.tar.gz"sudo> rm -rf /usr/local/gosudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf "go$ver.linux-amd64.tar.gz"rm "go$ver.linux-amd64.tar.gz"echo "export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin:$HOME/go/bin" >> \~/.bash\_profilesource \~/.bash\_profilefi

### Install node <a href="#install-node" id="install-node"></a>

cd $HOMErm -rf gitopiagit clone <https://github.com/gitopia-network/gitopia.gitcd> gitopiagit checkout v3.3.0make install

### Setting up vars <a href="#setting-up-vars" id="setting-up-vars"></a>

You should replace values in <> \<YOUR\_MONIKER> Here you should put name of your moniker (validator) that will be visible in explorer \<YOUR\_WALLET> Here you shoud put the name of your walletGITOPIA\_WALLET="\<YOUR\_WALLET\_NAME>"GITOPIA\_NODENAME="\<YOUR\_MONIKER>"GITOPIA\_CHAIN\_ID="gitopia"echo "export GITOPIA\_WALLET=${GITOPIA\_WALLET}export GITOPIA\_NODENAME=${GITOPIA\_NODENAME}export GITOPIA\_CHAIN\_ID=${GITOPIA\_CHAIN\_ID}" >> $HOME/.bash\_profile​source $HOME/.bash\_profile

### Configure your node <a href="#configure-your-node" id="configure-your-node"></a>

gitopiad config chain-id ${GITOPIA\_CHAIN\_ID}

### Initialize your node <a href="#initialize-your-node" id="initialize-your-node"></a>

gitopiad init ${GITOPIA\_NODENAME} --chain-id ${GITOPIA\_CHAIN\_ID}

### (OPTIONAL) Set custom ports <a href="#optional-set-custom-ports" id="optional-set-custom-ports"></a>

### Create Service <a href="#create-service" id="create-service"></a>

sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/gitopiad.service > /dev/null <\<EOF\[Unit]Description=Gitopia mainnetAfter=network-online.target​\[Service]User=$USERExecStart=$(which gitopiad) startRestart=on-failureRestartSec=3LimitNOFILE=65535​\[Install]WantedBy=multi-user.targetEOF

### Reset blockchain info and restart your node <a href="#reset-blockchain-info-and-restart-your-node" id="reset-blockchain-info-and-restart-your-node"></a>

sudo systemctl daemon-reload

sudo systemctl enable gitopiad

gitopiad tendermint unsafe-reset-all --home $HOME/.gitopia --keep-addr-book

sudo systemctl restart gitopiad && sudo journalctl -u gitopiad -f -o cat

### (OPTIONAL) Use State Sync <a href="#optional-use-state-sync" id="optional-use-state-sync"></a>

#### ​[State Sync](https://chain-services.l0vd.com/mainnets/gitopia/installation-guide)​ <a href="#state-sync" id="state-sync"></a>

### Starting a validator <a href="#starting-a-validator" id="starting-a-validator"></a>

#### 1. Add a new key <a href="#id-1.-add-a-new-key" id="id-1.-add-a-new-key"></a>

gitopiad keys add ${GITOPIA\_WALLET}

**(OR)**

#### 1. Recover your key <a href="#id-1.-recover-your-key" id="id-1.-recover-your-key"></a>

gitopiad keys add ${GITOPIA\_WALLET} --recover GITOPIA\_WALLET\_ADDR=$(gitopiad keys show ${GITOPIA\_WALLET} -a)echo "export GITOPIA\_WALLET\_ADDR=${GITOPIA\_WALLET\_ADDR}" >> $HOME/.bash\_profile​source $HOME/.bash\_profile

### 2. Create validator <a href="#id-2.-create-validator" id="id-2.-create-validator"></a>

Wait until the node is synchronized.gitopiad tx staking create-validator \\--amount 1000000ulore \\--commission-max-change-rate "0.01" \\--commission-max-rate "0.20" \\--commission-rate "0.1" \\--min-self-delegation "1" \\--details "" \\--pubkey $(gitopiad tendermint show-validator) \\--moniker ${GITOPIA\_NODENAME} \\--chain-id ${GITOPIA\_CHAIN\_ID} \\--from ${GITOPIA\_WALLET\_ADDR} \\--gas-prices 0.001ulore \\--gas-adjustment 1.5 \\--gas auto \\--yes

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://networks.stakr.space/cosmos-mainnets/gitopia/node-installation.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
