-# Running a Validator
-
-### Step 1: Install Rust
-
-#### On Linux:
-
-1. **Install Dependencies**:
-   ```bash
-   sudo apt install build-essential git clang curl libssl-dev protobuf-compiler
-   ```
-2. **Install Rust**:
-   ```bash
-   curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
-   source $HOME/.cargo/env
-   rustup default stable
-   rustup update
-   rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown --toolchain nightly
-   ```
-
-#### On Windows:
-
-1. **Enable WSL**:
-   ```bash
-   wsl --install
-   ```
-2. **Install Dependencies and Rust**:
-   ```bash
-   sudo apt update
-   sudo apt install git clang curl libssl-dev llvm libudev-dev make protobuf-compiler
-   curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
-   source ~/.cargo/env
-   rustup default stable
-   rustup update
-   rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown --toolchain nightly
-   ```
-
-### Step 2: Setup Key Pairs
-
-1. **Install Subkey**:
-   ```bash
-   cargo install subkey --force --locked
-   ```
-
-2. **Clone and Build ArgoChain**:
-   ```bash
-   git clone --branch tokenomics https://github.com/Devolved-AI/Argochain.git
-   cd Argochain
-   cargo build --release
-   ```
-
-### Step 3: Generate Keys
-
-**For BABE (Block Production):**
-```bash
-subkey generate --scheme Sr25519 --password-interactive
-./target/release/argochain key insert --base-path /tmp/node05 --chain ./customSpecRaw.json --scheme Sr25519 --suri <Secret Seed> --password-interactive --key-type babe
-```
-
-**For GRANDPA (Finality Gadget):**
-```bash
-subkey generate --scheme Ed25519 --password-interactive
-./target/release/argochain key insert --base-path /tmp/node05 --chain ./customSpecRaw.json --scheme Ed25519 --suri <Secret Seed> --password-interactive --key-type gran
-```
-
-**For IM Online (Heartbeat Mechanism):**
-```bash
-subkey generate --scheme Sr25519 --password-interactive
-./target/release/argochain key insert --base-path /tmp/node05 --chain ./customSpecRaw.json --scheme Sr25519 --suri <Secret Seed> --password-interactive --key-type imon
-```
-
-**For Authority Discovery (Network Discovery):**
-```bash
-subkey generate --scheme Sr25519 --password-interactive
-./target/release/argochain key insert --base-path /tmp/node05 --chain ./customSpecRaw.json --scheme Sr25519 --suri <Secret Seed> --password-interactive --key-type audi
-```
-
-### Step 4: Run Validator Node
-
-Start the validator node with the following command:
-```bash
-nohup ./target/release/argochain --base-path /tmp/<path> --chain customSpecRaw.json --port <port> --rpc-port <rpc port> --telemetry-url "wss://telemetry.polkadot.io/submit/ 0" --name <name> --validator --rpc-methods Unsafe --unsafe-rpc-external --rpc-max-connections 15000 --rpc-cors all &
-```
-
-### Step 5: View Logs
-
-To view the logs of your running validator node, use the following command:
-```bash
-tail -f nohup.out
-```
-This will display the log output in real-time, allowing you to monitor the node's activity.
-
-### Step 6: Check Time Until Next Era
-
-1. **Access Polkadot.js Apps**: Go to [Polkadot.js Apps](https://polkadot.js.org/apps/).
-2. **Navigate to Staking**: Click on "Network" in the top menu, then select "Staking".
-3. **Check Era Progress**: On the staking page, you will see the current era and a progress bar indicating how much time is left until the next era.
-
-### Step 7: Staking
-
-1. **Access ArgoScan Explorer**: Go to [ArgoScan Explorer](https://explorer.argoscan.net/).
-2. **Navigate to Staking**: Go to Network -> Staking -> Accounts.
-3. **Get Rotate Keys**: Run the following command to rotate keys:
-   ```bash
-   curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0", "method":"author_rotateKeys", "params":[], "id":1}' http://localhost:<rpc port>
-   ```
-4. **Bond and Validate**: Follow the bonding process to start validating.
-
-Wait for an era (approximately 1 hour) to begin participating in block validation.

-This guide provides detailed steps for installing Rust, setting up key pairs, running a validator node, viewing logs, checking the time until the next era, and staking for new validators on the ArgoChain.
