in this video we will show you how to
set up ETH 2.0 staking on your avado we are assuming that you have
already generated a staking wallet and deposited your 32 ETH into the deposit
contract to enable your staking keys. If you haven't yet created your
keys the safest way to generate these is to visit the ethereum
launchpad which I'll link below. This screen shows the dappstore where
you can install software on the AVADO and on top you see two new packages: the
beacon chain and the ETH 2.0 validator. You only need to install the
validator client because it will automatically install the
beacon chain package as well. You should also have the Geth Ethereum
node installed and synchronized. If you haven't done that yet you should start by
installing that package first and let it sync. Be aware that syncing the Ethereum node
might take several days to complete.
So let's go ahead and set up our validator. Click
the install button to see the package details and click the install button
at the bottom of the screen. it will now download and install both
the validator and the beacon chain. Aall right now that both packages are running we can go ahead and click the
"configure package" button. You will be presented with this nice
disclaimer pointing out that you're responsible for your own actions so let's
agree to that and open the web dashboard. The next thing you'll need to do is import
the validator wallet that you have created into the validator by selecting the middle button. Now click browse files and select the keystore
file that contains your validator key.
Cclick continue and you will
be asked the password to unlock your key store. Type it in and press continue. Since the dashboard is now personalized for
your staking keys now it's time to secure the access to this web interface
so nobody else can access it. Choose a password and confirm it. The last step in this onboarding is to choose a password to encrypt your wallet
itself inside the staking client. if you filled out everything correctly you
will arrive on the validator dashboard! There we can see that our validator
is connected to our beacon chain and currently awaiting the
genesis block, how exciting! We can also see that we have a
balance of 32 ETH on our validator so we're ready to rock. Now it's just a
matter of waiting until the chain starts.
Congratulations you're now staking on
ETH 2.0 but i'm sure that's exactly why you're looking at this video in the first place. So take care and we'll see you in the next
video! Keep posted for more updates, bye!.
