This utility manages Solana Foundation Delegation Program registrations.
Install Rust from https://rustup.rs/, then run
bash
$ sudo apt install libudev-dev
$ cargo install solana-foundation-delegation-program-cli
$ solana-foundation-delegation-program --version
To register you will need: 1. Two validator identity keypairs; one for the Solana Testnet and another for the Solana Mainnet 2. Approximately ◎0.002 to submit the registration
To begin, create your validator identity keypairs by running:
bash
$ solana-keygen new -o testnet-validator-keypair.json
$ solana-keygen new -o mainnet-validator-keypair.json
Keep these keypairs safe; you cannot change them once you submit your
registration.
Confirm your balance is not empty,
$ solana -um balance
then run the following command to submit your registration:
$ solana-foundation-delegation-program apply --mainnet mainnet-validator-keypair.json --testnet testnet-validator-keypair.json
To view the status of your registration, run
$ solana-foundation-delegation-program status testnet-validator-keypair.json
or
$ solana-foundation-delegation-program status mainnet-validator-keypair.json
If you wish to withdraw your registration, run
$ solana-foundation-delegation-program withdraw testnet-validator-keypair.json
or
$ solana-foundation-delegation-program withdraw mainnet-validator-keypair.json
Once withdrawn, your registration is deleted and cannot be recovered.
