Building a Public Validator + Sentry

Back

Building a Public Validator + Sentry

For the following instructions, we will describe the steps to setup a validator or a sentry for an existing MainNet or Public Test Net. Unless otherwise stated, the instruction steps apply to both sentries and validators.

If you are following the FORK path, keep in mind that you must ensure your new validator is on the new network, and not the old. If you start your new validator but it attempts to peer with the old network, there is a risk you could get slashed for double-signing, that comes with a substantial penalty that will be concerning on the Main Net (you lose alot of money!).

Please be extra careful to ensure you setup the new validator carefully, only talking to the new network and only configured for the new network.

  1. Refer to previous documents for initializing the server, dev environments, and building the Bluzelle Curium applications. Refer to steps i-iii listed below.

    CRITICAL: If you are building for the MAIN NET, ensure you have built curium using the "mainnet" target. Use this if you are doing a FORK. ALSO, ensure you have checked out the "main-net-2" branch. You can do so by going to the curium folder and doing: "git checkout main-net-2". The "main-net-2" branch will always be pointed at the right point for MainNet nodes.

    OR

    CRITICAL: If you are building for the TEST NET, ensure you have built curium using the "testnet" target. Use this if you are doing a FORK. ALSO, ensure you have checked out the "test-net-public-2" branch. You can do so by going to the curium folder and doing: "git checkout test-net-public-2". The "test-net-public-2" branch will always be pointed at the right point for TestNetPublic nodes.

    These are steps involved in setting up the OS, development environment, and building the nodes that intend to run in one of our Curium zones. Please go through this process for your validator and each of your sentries. ONLY follow the three specific links listed below, please. DO NOT click through the "next" button at the bottom of the third link, as you only need to execute the steps on these three links specifically.

    i. OS Setup for Curium

    ii. Development Environment Setup

    iii. Build the Curium Project

  2. Open incoming TCP port 26656 (P2P) and TCP/UDP 5500 (NFT). Optionally, if you have sufficient firewall and packet filtering security (to protect against DoS and DDoS attacks), you may opt to also open up 26657 (RPC), and 1317 (RESTful). These two ports are only for the purposes of serving clients. If you have no such interest and do not want to deal with the security considerations, keep them closed. There are many DoS and DDoS vectors possible if these ports are open, to open them with caution and only if necessary.

    If you are running both a sentry and a validator, follow these directives:

    • Sentry: P2P, NFT, RPC (optional), RESTful (optional)
    • Validator: Only P2P and NFT

    Furthermore, if you are running both, be sure to set your validator to ONLY allow incoming 26656 from your sentry's IP.

  3. If required, remove existing .blz* folders from the user directory (only necessary if you had a pre-existing install).

    cd
    rm -rf .blz*
    
  4. Please ensure you have the correct chain-id. We change it whenever we restart a new network.

    Run the following command to find the existing chain-id:

    MAIN NET (including FORK path):

    curl --location --request GET 'https://client.sentry.bluzellenet.bluzelle.com:1317/node_info' -s | jq '.node_info.network' | tr -d '"'
    

    TEST NET:

    curl --location --request GET 'https://client.sentry.testnet.public.bluzelle.com:1317/node_info' -s | jq '.node_info.network' | tr -d '"'
    
  5. Initialize your daemon config as follows using the chain-id found above:

    blzd init <moniker> --chain-id <chain-id>  2>&1 | jq .node_id
    

    Use a unique moniker string that uniquely identifies your validator/sentry. Please start the moniker with "validator" or "sentry", depending on what you are adding, and use camel case. Try to include your own or company name, if applicable. If doing a FORK, please use the same moniker as for your existing node(s), to ease contest procedures.

    Examples:

    sentryBob
    validatorTesla
    

    Here is an example of initializing your local daemon config:

    blzd init sentryBob --chain-id bluzelleMainNet-1976  2>&1 | jq .node_id
    

    The JSON output will contain the node_id. Note this value, as it can be used to identify this node to other nodes in the zone. Keep in mind that for this document’s purposes, your validator and sentry will both only point at each other. Your sentry will also point at other known public sentries (if you know any) and to Bluzelle's own gateway sentries. More on this later in this document.

    There is no need to touch the genesis file, ".blzd/config/genesis.json" yet. The one that was generated just now is generic and not needed. It will be completely replaced with the genesis file already in use. We will perform this step later in this document.

  6. Set the client configuration, and remember to use the chain id of the network (found above) that this node will be joining:

    blzcli config chain-id <chain-id>
    blzcli config output json 
    blzcli config indent true 
    blzcli config trust-node true
    blzcli config keyring-backend test
    
  7. Collect the node id's of the gateway sentries.

    Use the following command, to get a list of all the gateway sentries, including their IP addresses and node id's:

    MAIN NET (including FORK path):

    curl -s http://sandbox.sentry.bluzellenet.bluzelle.com:26657/net_info | jq -C '[.result.peers[] | select(.node_info.moniker | startswith("daemon-sentry-gateway")) | {moniker: .node_info.moniker, id: .node_info.id, ip_address: .remote_ip}] | sort_by(.moniker)'
    

    TEST NET:

    curl -s http://sandbox.sentry.testnet.public.bluzelle.com:26657/net_info | jq -C '[.result.peers[] | select(.node_info.moniker | startswith("daemon-sentry-gateway")) | {moniker: .node_info.moniker, id: .node_info.id, ip_address: .remote_ip}] | sort_by(.moniker)'
    

    Note down the sentry IP address and respective id, for each such gateway sentry. You will need this information next.

  8. If you are ONLY setting up a validator, do the following. Otherwise, if you are setting up both a validator AND a sentry, ONLY do the following on the sentry.

    Edit ".blzd/config/config.toml". Add the hostnames/IPs and node id's and ports of each of the gateway sentries found earlier, as a comma-separated list, to the "persistent_peers" value (replace the existing value, if any), as follows:

    # Comma separated list of nodes to keep persistent connections to
    persistent_peers = "<node id>@<node hostname>:26656"
    

    So, for example, the following:

    # Comma separated list of nodes to keep persistent connections to
    persistent_peers = "[email protected]:26656"
    
  9. OPTIONALLY (if you want to provide RPC services as are needed for your own REST proxy, for example), ensure you have opened up RPC to the public in config.toml, by specifying the "laddr" value in the [rpc] section as follows (the default is only to listen on localhost):

    laddr = "tcp://0.0.0.0:26657"
    

    Of course, this depends highly on your setup. If your REST proxy is local to blzd, you can opt to only open up RPC to 127.0.0.1 and restrict access to RPC.

  10. If you are adding a sentry, append your validator's "@:26656" entry to the persistent_peers comma-separated list in your sentry, in config.toml.

  11. If you are adding a validator, append your sentry's "@:26656" entry to the persistent_peers comma-separated list in your validator, in config.toml. Only applicable if you are also adding a sentry.

  12. If you are adding a sentry, set "pex = true", in config.toml.

  13. If you are adding a validator, set "pex = false", in config.toml.

  14. If you are adding a sentry, add your validator's node id (only the node id) to the "private_peer_ids" comma-separated list, in your sentry's config.toml. For example:

    "d229f73ac8de82fa788e495c181c7e0aaa72375e"
    
  15. In config.toml, set the following:

    addr_book_strict = false
    
  16. In config.toml, set the following in the [p2p] section for port forwarding:

    upnp = false
    
  17. In config.toml, set the following in the [p2p] section for peer-exchange reactor (set to true for sentries and false for validators):

    pex = false
    
  18. In config.toml, set a suitable maximum # of allowed inbound and outbound peers in the [p2p] section. For example, with a node that might be very busy (such as a sentry to a secure zone for validators), you might want to increase from the defaults, to avoid a situation where peers start to get dropped. Following are the values we have used:

    # Maximum number of inbound peers
    max_num_inbound_peers = 200
    
    # Maximum number of outbound peers to connect to, excluding persistent peers
    max_num_outbound_peers = 100
    
  19. Edit ".blzd/config/app.toml" to set the minimum-gas-prices to “0.002ubnt”

    # The minimum gas prices a validator is willing to accept for processing a
    # transaction. A transaction's fees must meet the minimum of any denomination
    # specified in this config (e.g. 0.25token1;0.0001token2).
    minimum-gas-prices = "0.002ubnt"
    

    Remember that every node should have at least this minimum. Feel free to set it higher if you wish.

  20. Edit ".blzd/config/app.toml", to add the following:

    bluzelle_crud = true
    
  21. Edit ".blzd/config/app.toml" to include the nft user, the nft directory (the directory you created in the devenv docs step #6), and nft p2p port (tcp and udp port that was opened in step #1 of os docs). It is vital to specify these values accurately -- for example, if the nft-base-dir is not writable by the blzd daemon and/or the nft-user-name is not funded when the blzd daemon is started, your chain sync will likely fail.

    CRITICAL: Every node (validator or sentry) must have its own UNIQUE nft user account on the chain. Of course, you can locally name each such user "nft" on each node, if you want, but as you will see later, you must create a unique such account on every node, sentry or validator. Do not share the nft user account between nodes.

    nft-user-name = "nft"
    nft-base-dir = "/home/ubuntu/nft"
    nft-p2p-port = "5500"
    

    CRITICAL: The "nft-base-dir" is where NFT files from the new Bluzelle NFT service will get stored to. It is vital that the volume this folder is in, be monitored and that it not fill up. NFT files can quickly overwhelm a small volume. If that volume happens to be the same one used by the blzd daemon, it can cause your node to crash completely, when full. In the case of a validator, your node could come down, and get slashed. It is recommended to keep this as a separate volume on a larger, monitored drive.

    CRITICAL: If the "nft-base-dir" volume does run out of space on your validator, NFT-related transactions will fail, on your node. Your validator will get an "app-hash" error, and will crash. If you don't correct the situation immediately, you run the risk of being jailed, and slashed. To correct the situation, you'd have to likely make more space on the nft volume, and re-sync your node from the start ("blzd unsafe-reset-all"), which can be a long process. PLEASE ensure this "nft-base-dir" folder is monitored closely.

  22. Copy into your "~/.blzd/config/" directory the network's existing genesis.json file. You can interactively view it as follows, from our sentry nodes:

    MAIN NET (including FORK path):

    curl http://sandbox.sentry.bluzellenet.bluzelle.com:26657/genesis | jq -C '.result.genesis' | more -r
    

    TEST NET:

    curl http://sandbox.sentry.testnet.public.bluzelle.com:26657/genesis | jq -C '.result.genesis' | more -r
    

    A convenient example to download it to the current folder from our sentry nodes:

    MAIN NET (including FORK path):

    curl http://sandbox.sentry.bluzellenet.bluzelle.com:26657/genesis | jq '.result.genesis' > genesis.json
    

    TEST NET:

    curl http://sandbox.sentry.testnet.public.bluzelle.com:26657/genesis | jq '.result.genesis' > genesis.json
    

    Ensure to copy over and replace the existing genesis.json file in your ~/.blzd/config/ folder with the downloaded one from the existing network.

  23. ONLY do this step if you are following the FORK PATH.

    Migrate your validator's consensus signing key from the old machine (the validator on the Soft MainNet) to the new machine (the validator on the Final TestNet).

    To do this, copy your ~/.blzd/config/priv_validator_key.json from the old machine to the new machine at the same location, overwriting the existing file on the new machine.

  24. If you are following the FORK PATH, SKIP this step.

    If you are creating a validator and/or sentry, you will now need to acquire BNT tokens. Following are instructions depending on if you are targeting the MAIN NET or TEST NET.

    MAIN NET:

    i) Be sure you have Metamask installed. It needs to be installed properly and connected to your ETH MainNet account that has access to the BLZ tokens you wish to use for your validator. You can use Metamask with Ledger and Trezor hardware wallets as well.

    ii) Goto the following URL to sign into the staking application:

    https://staking.bluzelle.com/

    iii) For a validator, create TWO separate new BNT mnemonics on our MAIN NET, and store and secure these BNT mnemonics securely. If you lose these mnemonics, you will lose ALL your funds. Bluzelle is not responsible and there is no policy to "refund" anything. Note that this web wallet is 100% client side. Your BNT mnemonics are generated on the local browser only and is never transmitted over the network. You are 100% responsible for storing and securing these mnemonics.

    iv) Add new local keypairs onto your validator node:

    blzcli keys add vuser --recover
    blzcli keys add nft --recover
    

    Provide the menemonics generated above from the web staking wallet, when asked for the BIP39 mnemonic.

    CRITICAL: The nft user account is debited a small nominal amount, everytime you start your node. This is to prevent certain DoS attack vectors. Please be aware of this and ensure your nft account is kept sufficiently funded.

    v) Convert the desired amount of BLZ tokens to BNT tokens by using the "Convert to BNT" button for EACH of the above TWO accounts. Please be patient, as we run the conversion relayer manually for now, and it runs a few times every day. Please join and follow our Telegram and Discord groups to keep updated. The nft and vuser accounts should be adequately funded.

    vi) For EACH sentry, create ONE UNIQUE new BNT mnemonic on our MAIN NET, and store and secure this BNT mnemonic securely. If you lose this mnemonic, you will lose ALL your funds. Bluzelle is not responsible and there is no policy to "refund" anything. Note that this web wallet is 100% client side. Your BNT mnemonics are generated on the local browser only and is never transmitted over the network. You are 100% responsible for storing and securing these mnemonics.

    vii) Add a new local keypair onto your sentry node:

    blzcli keys add nft --recover
    

    Provide the menemonic generated above from the web staking wallet, when asked for the BIP39 mnemonic.

    CRITICAL: The nft user account is debited a small nominal amount, everytime you start your node. This is to prevent certain DoS attack vectors. Please be aware of this and ensure your nft account is kept sufficiently funded.

    viii) Convert the desired amount of BLZ tokens to BNT tokens by using the "Convert to BNT" button. Please be patient, as we run the conversion relayer manually for now, and it runs a few times every day. Please join and follow our Telegram and Discord groups to keep updated.

    TEST NET:

    i) For a validator, add TWO new local keypairs on the node:

    blzcli keys add vuser
    blzcli keys add nft
    

    which will produce the following output for vuser and nft (vuser as an example):

    • name: vuser type: local address: bluzelle1z<...> pubkey: bluzellepub1<...> mnemonic: "" threshold: 0 pubkeys: []

      Important write this mnemonic phrase in a safe place. It is the only way to recover your account if you ever forget your password.

      poem reason <...> palace

    CRITICAL: Note the Bluzelle address (starting with "bluzelle") and mnemonic phrase values. You will need these on a long term basis.

    ii) Get some tokens from our FAUCET endpoint. Note that you can only use the faucet once every FIVE minutes. Goto the following URL, replacing in your account's Bluzelle address. Do this for the vuser and nft addresses:

    https://sandbox.sentry.testnet.public.bluzelle.com:1317/mint/

    iii) Verify you have tokens. If the above URL gives an error that the account it not found or something else, it likely means the faucet has not yet completed (takes a few seconds) or has failed for some reason. Use the following command to check your balance:

    blzcli q account $(blzcli keys show vuser -a) --node http://sandbox.sentry.testnet.public.bluzelle.com:26657
    

    CRITICAL: The nft user account is debited a small nominal amount, everytime you start your node. This is to prevent certain DoS attack vectors. Please be aware of this and ensure your nft account is kept sufficiently funded.

    iv) For EACH sentry, add ONE new UNIQUE local keypair on the node:

    blzcli keys add nft
    

    which will produce the following output for nft (nft as an example):

    • name: nft type: local address: bluzelle1z<...> pubkey: bluzellepub1<...> mnemonic: "" threshold: 0 pubkeys: []

      Important write this mnemonic phrase in a safe place. It is the only way to recover your account if you ever forget your password.

      poem reason <...> palace

    CRITICAL: Note the Bluzelle address (starting with "bluzelle") and mnemonic phrase values. You will need these on a long term basis.

    v) Get some tokens from our FAUCET endpoint. Note that you can only use the faucet once every FIVE minutes. Goto the following URL, replacing in your account's Bluzelle address. Do this for the nft address on every node:

    https://sandbox.sentry.testnet.public.bluzelle.com:1317/mint/

    iii) Verify you have tokens. If the above URL gives an error that the account it not found or something else, it likely means the faucet has not yet completed (takes a few seconds) or has failed for some reason. Use the following command to check your balance:

    blzcli q account $(blzcli keys show nft -a) --node http://sandbox.sentry.testnet.public.bluzelle.com:26657
    

    CRITICAL: The nft user account is debited a small nominal amount, everytime you start your node. This is to prevent certain DoS attack vectors. Please be aware of this and ensure your nft account is kept sufficiently funded.

  25. ONLY do this step if you are following the FORK PATH.

    If you are creating a validator, you will now need to acquire BNT tokens. Following are instructions depending on if you are targeting the MAIN NET or TEST NET.

    MAIN NET:

    i) Be sure you have Metamask installed. It needs to be installed properly and connected to your ETH MainNet account that has access to the BLZ tokens you wish to use for your validator. You can use Metamask with Ledger and Trezor hardware wallets as well.

    ii) Goto the following URL to sign into the staking application:

Your BNT mnemonics are generated on the local browser only and is never transmitted over the network. You are 100% responsible for storing and securing these mnemonics.

    iv) Add a new local UNIQUE keypair on EVERY node (validators and sentries):

    blzcli keys add nft --recover
    

    Provide the menemonics generated above from the web staking wallet, when asked for the BIP39 mnemonic.

    CRITICAL: The nft user account is debited a small nominal amount, everytime you start your node. This is to prevent certain DoS attack vectors. Please be aware of this and ensure your nft account is kept sufficiently funded.

    TEST NET:

    i) Add a new local UNIQUE keypair on EVERY node (validators and sentries):

    blzcli keys add nft
    

    which will produce the following output for nft:

    • name: nft type: local address: bluzelle1z<...> pubkey: bluzellepub1<...> mnemonic: "" threshold: 0 pubkeys: []

      Important write this mnemonic phrase in a safe place. It is the only way to recover your account if you ever forget your password.

      poem reason <...> palace

    CRITICAL: Note the Bluzelle address (starting with "bluzelle") and mnemonic phrase values. You will need these on a long term basis.

    ii) Get some tokens from our FAUCET endpoint. Note that you can only use the faucet once every FIVE minutes. Goto the following URL, replacing in your account's Bluzelle address. Do this for the nft address on every node:

    https://sandbox.sentry.testnet.public.bluzelle.com:1317/mint/

    iii) Verify you have tokens. If the above URL gives an error that the account it not found or something else, it likely means the faucet has not yet completed (takes a few seconds) or has failed for some reason. Use the following command to check your balance:

    blzcli q account $(blzcli keys show nft -a) --node http://sandbox.sentry.testnet.public.bluzelle.com:26657
    

    CRITICAL: The nft user account is debited a small nominal amount, everytime you start your node. This is to prevent certain DoS attack vectors. Please be aware of this and ensure your nft account is kept sufficiently funded.

  26. ONLY do this step if you are following the FORK PATH.

    Export your existing validator's operator wallet from the existing validator machine and import it to the new validator machine. We will assume that the existing wallet account is called vuser and will call the new imported wallet account the same name.

    Important if you do not have an nft user on your existing validator, you must create and fund them before you export them out. See step #24 on how to do that.

    i. On the existing validator machine:

    blzcli keys export vuser
    

    Note that the passphrase to encrypt the exported key that you provide is required when you import the key in the next step. Copy the outputs of the above commands (it will display the output to your screen) and store it into files. We will assume these files are named export.txt, export2.txt, export3.txt.

    ii. On the new validator machine (provide the second password entered when doing the export):

    blzcli keys import vuser export.txt
    

    Notes:

    i. If you have the mnemonic handy for your original vuser user, you can just add them to the new validator with the following:

    blzcli keys add vuser --recover
    

    Paste in the mnemonic, when asked.

    ii. If your vuser for your original vuser is secured with a Ledger device, add it to the new validator machine as follows (ensure your Ledger device is plugged in and running the COSMOS app). Do these for nft users as well.:

    blzcli keys add vuser --ledger --account <i>
    

    Typically, the value of i will be 0, unless you have multiple HD-derived accounts.

  27. Start the Bluzelle daemon

    blzd start
    

    The node will start and catch up to the rest of the zone. Occasionally, this command will fail, in that case run the following command first

    blzd unsafe-reset-all
    

    and then retry the start command.

    Notes.

    i. If you want extra info for logging or analysis or debugging purposes, you can alternatively add the --log_level info flag to blzd start.

    ii. Don't get alarmed if you are following the FORK PATH and your validator starts up stating it is not a validator. This is NORMAL. Your validator is currently in jail, so it does not yet appear in the active validator set. That's all this message means. We will unjail you later.

  28. If you are creating a validator, wait till your new node catches up to the rest of the zone. It will be obvious as the node will slow down output and be getting blocks every 4-5 seconds.

    To be sure, run the following command in another terminal on the validator and look for the output of true:

    watch 'blzcli status | jq ".sync_info.catching_up == false"'
    
  29. Verify your accounts have the tokens you expect, by asking the local node:

    blzcli q account $(blzcli keys show vuser -a) | jq ".value.coins"
    blzcli q account $(blzcli keys show nft -a) | jq ".value.coins"
    
  30. If you are following the FORK PATH, SKIP this step.

    At this point, the new "vuser" account will also reflect the BNT tokens that were funded to it. We now need to add this node as a validator, as follows:

    blzcli tx staking create-validator \
      --amount=<bonding amount> \
      --pubkey=$(blzd tendermint show-validator) \
      --website="<your website>" \
      --details="<description of your organization>" \ 
      --security-contact="<contact information>" \
      --identity=<keyBase/UPort 16 HEX digit PGP public key hash> \
      --moniker=<your moniker> \
      --commission-rate=0.1 \
      --commission-max-rate=0.2 \
      --commission-max-change-rate=0.01 \
      --min-self-delegation=1 \
      --gas=auto --gas-adjustment=2.0 \
      --gas-prices=<minimum gas price> \
      --from vuser
    

    The --identity (an optional field) is used to identify your organization, verifiably. Generate a PGP key on your Keybase account, and provide the 16 HEX digit public key hash (no spaces). This identity is also used to retrieve a logo for your validator's profile, if provided. According to COSMOS documentation, UPort may alternatively be used.

    This will stake this node’s validator with the prescribed amount of ubnt tokens to become a validator. The validator will participate in validating new operations sent to block chain and earn rewards and commision for doing so.

    Be sure to note the pubkey in the output.

    You can experiment with different values for the amount, commission rate, and gas price, although the latter should match whatever you put into app.toml.

    Be sure to not use 100% of the amount of BNT in your vuser account, as you need some BNT to pay for gas.

    We HIGHLY recommend including your Discord account and/or Email address in the "security contact" field, along with your name, as the primary contact.

    For example:

    blzcli tx staking create-validator \
      --amount=1500000000ubnt \
      --pubkey=$(blzd tendermint show-validator) \
      --website="https://bluzelle.com" \
      --details="To infinity and beyond" \
      --security-contact="neeraj#1234, [email protected], Neeraj Murarka" \
      --identity=5615416F70265000 \
      --moniker=validatorNeeraj \
      --commission-rate=0.1 \
      --commission-max-rate=0.2 \
      --commission-max-change-rate=0.01 \
      --min-self-delegation=1 \
      --gas=auto --gas-adjustment=2.0 \
      --gas-prices=0.002ubnt \
      --from vuser
    
  31. ONLY do this step if you are following the FORK PATH.

    You will now unjail your validator to bring it back into the active validator set. Once you do this, the network will expect your validator to be running and it will once again be subject to all the requirements of being a validator, including slashing penalties, etc. Note that once unjailed, you CANNOT "re-jail" your validator.

    blzcli tx slashing unjail --gas-prices 0.002ubnt --gas=auto --gas-adjustment=2.0 --from vuser --chain-id <chain id>
    
  32. Verify that your validator is now active and running with the following command, and look for your validator's moniker:

    blzcli q staking validators | jq -r '.[] | select(.status == 2) | .description.moniker'
    
  33. Optionally, you can also get the current validator set with the commands (be sure to check all available pages -- the limit cannot exceed 100):

    blzcli q tendermint-validator-set --limit 100 --page 1
    blzcli q tendermint-validator-set --limit 100 --page 2
    

    which will produce the output like the following:

    {
      "block_height": "758",
      "validators": [
        {
          "address": "bluzellevalcons1d<...>",
          "pub_key": "bluzellevalconspub1<...>",
          "proposer_priority": "-87",
          "voting_power": "100"
        },
        {
          "address": "bluzellevalcons1<...>",
          "pub_key": "bluzellevalconspub1<...>",
          "proposer_priority": "88",
          "voting_power": "100"
        }
      ]
    }
    

    Look for your pubkey here, as confirmation.

  34. Furthermore, within a few minutes, you should also see your validator listed listed at the Bluzelle Explorer:

    MAIN NET (including FORK path):

    http://bigdipper.bluzellenet.bluzelle.com/validators

    TEST NET:

    https://bigdipper.testnet.public.bluzelle.com/validators
