Create Wallet

##Create new wallet
alignedlayerd keys add $ALIGNED_WALLET

##Recovery old wallet
alignedlayerd keys add $ALIGNED_WALLET --recover

##Save wallet and validator address
ALIGNED_WALLET_ADDRESS=$(alignedlayerd keys show $ALIGNED_WALLET -a)
ALIGNED_VALOPER_ADDRESS=$(alignedlayerd keys show $ALIGNED_WALLET --bech val -a)
echo "export WALLET_ADDRESS="$ALIGNED_WALLET_ADDRESS >> $HOME/.bash_profile

Registering as a Validator

#check your validator status
alignedlayerd status 2>&1 | jq
##or you can use this
curl localhost:26657/status | jq

#make sure your node is sysnced to the latest height "catching_up: false"

#registering your validator
cd $HOME/aligned_layer_tendermint
bash setup_validator.sh <account-name-or-address> 1050000stake

Delete Node

sudo systemctl stop alignedlayerd
sudo systemctl disable alignedlayerd
sudo rm -rf /etc/systemd/system/alignedlayerd.service
sudo rm $(which alignedlayerd)
sudo rm -rf $HOME/.alignedlayer
