We initialize the node to create the necessary configuration files
emped init UTSA_guide --chain-id empe-testnet-2
Download Genesis and Config
wget -O $HOME/.empe-chain/config/genesis.json "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/empe-io/empe-chains/master/testnet-2/genesis.json"
sha256sum ~/.empe-chain/config/genesis.json
# 2aabbc5e3cabbd0f2cdb9a442dc476397c05b624f42ee23e832fdf1c48f60c91
At this stage, we can download the address book
wget -O $HOME/.empe-chain/config/addrbook.json "https://share102.utsa.tech/empeiria/addrbook.json"
Set up node configuration
emped config chain-id empe-testnet-2
emped config keyring-backend os
sed -i.bak -e "s/^minimum-gas-prices *=.*/minimum-gas-prices = \"0.0025uempe\"/;" ~/.empe-chain/config/app.toml
external_address=$(wget -qO- eth0.me)
sed -i.bak -e "s/^external_address *=.*/external_address = \"$external_address:26656\"/" $HOME/.empe-chain/config/config.toml
(OPTIONAL) Set up pruning
pruning="custom"
pruning_keep_recent="1000"
pruning_interval="10"
sed -i -e "s/^pruning *=.*/pruning = \"$pruning\"/" $HOME/.empe-chain/config/app.toml
sed -i -e "s/^pruning-keep-recent *=.*/pruning-keep-recent = \"$pruning_keep_recent\"/" $HOME/.empe-chain/config/app.toml
sed -i -e "s/^pruning-interval *=.*/pruning-interval = \"$pruning_interval\"/" $HOME/.empe-chain/config/app.toml
(OPTIONAL) Set up indexer
indexer="null"
sed -i -e "s/^indexer *=.*/indexer = \"$indexer\"/" $HOME/.empe-chain/config/config.toml
(OPTIONAL) Enable/Disable Snapshots
snapshot_interval=1000
sed -i.bak -e "s/^snapshot-interval *=.*/snapshot-interval = \"$snapshot_interval\"/" ~/.empe-chain/config/app.toml

If peers do not cling for a long time or you see errors error: wrong Block.Header.AppHash, you need to use State sync or boot from a Snapshot
