There was a recent session on how to set up a Cosmos validator. It has been seen that small validators do a great job at Cosmos. Therefore, attempts are being made to make things easy for small validators. This is important because small validators deserve more delegation
Cosmos Tweeted: “Did you miss the Code with Us session with mark0baricevic on how to setup a @cosmos validator and choose the best validator setup & sentry node architecture to join a network?”
The Marko Baricevic video clearly explains what a Cosmos validator is and what a Cosmos validator does. The video walks through the step-by-step process of running a Comos validator on the edition of Cosmos Code with Us.
Anyone interested in becoming a validator will feel that the dedicated 02 hour 09 minutes and 52 seconds is worth all the time spent in learning.
For those who are new to Cosmos, “Cosmos is an open, distributed network of interoperable block chains powered by the Tendermint consensus algorithm.”
Maheen Hernandez ,writer at The Currency Analytics opined: “It is worth the time spent learning to set up a Cosmos Validator Node on their You Tube Channel, particularly from someone who has direct experience running a validator. Win with ATOM.”
About the Sentry Architecture they say the validator must be private, sentry node relays messages from public internet to your validator, validator can have multiple connections or just one, sentries do not have to be in same location as validator and security due to prediction of next proposer.
The video speaks about what are the requirements of starting a server; further about the validator node like the back end, peer exchange set to false, persistent peers will be your sentry nodes, address book strict set to false and lot more.
Worth all the time spent clear. Very practical and very realistic and feels like real-time.
Validators who get to be systematically trained make better validators with improved operation experience. They will be able to operate with more efficiency than ever before.
It also helps to get to know the upcoming Stargate upgrade which includes the code to enable the internet of blockchains which is the final milestone in the Cosmos Whitepaper. And this can also be called to be the first step in the internet of blockchains era. The upgrade provides support to multiple languages, provides for flexibility for developers in creating blockchain data visualizers and explorers.
