Join Seele TestNet

Steps to join Seele Test Network

Notes: you should use the testnet1.1 branch for joining testNet. ``git checkout testnet1.1``

1. Pick some seele test network nodes

Go to http://seelemonitor.net and select any Shard number in the left sidebar, then select any IP address from the NodeName (form: seele_node_ip) list. Replace the staticNodes field in node1.json with the new IP address. The file node1.json is located in /go-seele/cmd/node/config/

node1.json Fragment:

··· ···
  "p2p": {
    "privateKey":"0xf65e40c6809643b25ce4df33153da2f3338876f181f83d2281c6ac4a987b1479",
    "staticNodes": ["ip:8057","ip1:8057"],
    "address": "0.0.0.0:8057",
    "networkID": 1
  }
··· ···

Each ip address in staticNodes should follow the “ip:port” format. If it is not just one, the format [“ip:port1”, “ip:port2”…] should be followed.

In this step, all you have to do is change this line “staticNodes”: [“ip:8057”,“ip1:8057”].

2. Change the accounts.json

The file accounts.json is also located in /go-seele/cmd/node/config/

accounts.json:

{
    "0x7c00f5a4312a6a3e458a07c2d650ce13c76b68b1": 3500000000000000,

    "0x8c04da4168cf8bc4cc0a06d5b5300f9e60f516e1": 3500000000000000,

    "0xc35a4c52a837d9f6d1fd9b346f323acde98d4621": 3500000000000000,
    "0x878d923de66edbf93416532cd54392eeb20a5d71": 3500000000000000
  }

In this step, you must replace accounts.json with all of the above.
