UPDATE: Aptos

If you did setup Aptos node using kjnodes noscripts before 16.05. Please consider to rebuild your VPS using more recent guide. After installation you have to re-submit your VALIDATOR VERIFICATION FORM with values from generated <username>.yaml file instead of private-keys.yaml

#aptos

UPDATE: Aptos

As Aptos team yesterday have changed their initial docker compose configuration files, it was not plausible to install both validator and fullnode on the same machine using noscripts in a guide. Please make sure you have both docker container testnet-fullnode-1 and testnet-validator-1 up and running.

docker ps --format '{{.Names}}'

If you have only testnet-validator-1 container running please cleanup your node or completely rebuild VPS from scratch and re-submit VALIDATOR VERIFICATION FORM

Celestia has launched Mamaki testnet. You can try to setup validator node using kjnodes guide

Currently you can experience problems with discovering peers. You can try to ask community for peers in discord or use publicly available Live Peers provided by Polkachu.

Also you can try setting up one of other node types on seperate machine by provided manual guides.

!Please note that Mamaki is not Celestia’s incentivized testnet, which is planned closer to mainnet that is not announced yet!
