Paxi Network - Cheat-sheet

Paxi Network Cheat Sheet and Key Management

This guide provides essential commands for managing wallets, nodes, and validators on the Paxi Network network. Make sure the environment variables mentioned at the end are correctly configured before using these commands.

1. Key Management

Create a New Wallet

⚠️ Important: Keep the generated seed phrase safe. It is the only way to recover your wallet.

paxid keys add $WALLET

Recover Wallet from Seed Phrase

paxid keys add $WALLET --recover

List Wallets

paxid keys list

Show Wallet Details

paxid keys show $WALLET

Delete Wallet

paxid keys delete $WALLET

2. Wallet Operations

Check Balance

paxid query bank balances $(paxid keys show $WALLET -a)

Send Tokens

paxid tx bank send $WALLET <recipient_address> <amount>upaxi --chain-id paxi-mainnet --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.5 --fees 500upaxi

3. Validator Management

💡 Note: Ensure you have enough tokens for self-delegation and transaction fees before creating a validator.

Create Validator

paxid tx staking create-validator \\
  --amount 1000000upaxi \\
  --from $WALLET \\
  --commission-rate 0.1 \\
  --commission-max-rate 0.2 \\
  --commission-max-change-rate 0.01 \\
  --min-self-delegation 1 \\
  --pubkey $(paxid tendermint show-validator) \\
  --moniker "$MONIKER" \\
  --identity "" \\
  --website "" \\
  --details "Your validator description" \\
  --security-contact "your@email.com" \\
  --chain-id paxi-mainnet \\
  --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.5 \\
  --fees 500upaxi

Edit Validator

paxid tx staking edit-validator \\
  --new-moniker "$MONIKER" \\
  --identity "" \\
  --website "" \\
  --details "Your validator description" \\
  --chain-id paxi-mainnet \\
  --from $WALLET \\
  --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.5 \\
  --fees 500upaxi

Delegate Tokens

paxid tx staking delegate $(paxid keys show $WALLET --bech val -a) 1000000upaxi --from $WALLET --chain-id paxi-mainnet --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.5 --fees 500upaxi

Withdraw Rewards (Delegator)

paxid tx distribution withdraw-rewards $(paxid keys show $WALLET --bech val -a) --from $WALLET --chain-id paxi-mainnet --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.5 --fees 500upaxi

Withdraw Rewards (Validator Commission)

paxid tx distribution withdraw-rewards $(paxid keys show $WALLET --bech val -a) --commission --from $WALLET --chain-id paxi-mainnet --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.5 --fees 500upaxi

Unbond Tokens

paxid tx staking unbond $(paxid keys show $WALLET --bech val -a) 1000000upaxi --from $WALLET --chain-id paxi-mainnet --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.5 --fees 500upaxi

Redelegate Tokens

paxid tx staking redelegate $(paxid keys show $WALLET --bech val -a) <destination_validator_address> 1000000upaxi --from $WALLET --chain-id paxi-mainnet --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.5 --fees 500upaxi

4. Node Status & Info

Check Sync Status

paxid status 2>&1 | jq .SyncInfo

Check Peer Info

curl -s localhost:26657/net_info | jq -r '.result.peers[] | "\\(.node_info.id)@\\(.remote_ip):\\(.node_info.listen_addr | split(":")[2])"'

Show Node ID

paxid tendermint show-node-id

Restart Node

sudo systemctl restart paxid

View Node Logs

sudo journalctl -u paxid -f -o cat

5. Governance

List Proposals

paxid query gov proposals

View Proposal Details

paxid query gov proposal <proposal_id>

Vote on Proposal

paxid tx gov vote <proposal_id> yes --from $WALLET --chain-id paxi-mainnet --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.5 --fees 500upaxi

6. Environment Variables

💡 Tip: Make sure to set these in your ~/.bash_profile or equivalent shell config.

echo "export WALLET=\"wallet\"" >> $HOME/.bash_profile
echo "export MONIKER=\"your-moniker\"" >> $HOME/.bash_profile
echo "export CHAIN_ID=\"paxi-mainnet\"" >> $HOME/.bash_profile
source $HOME/.bash_profile

This cheat sheet is provided to streamline Paxi Network validator and wallet management. All commands use environment variables for easier management.
