#### ***Set custom ports***

You can change value CUSTOM\_PORT=169 To any other ports

```bash
CUSTOM_PORT=169
```

```bash
sed -i -e "s%^proxy_app = \"tcp://127.0.0.1:26658\"%proxy_app = \"tcp://127.0.0.1:${CUSTOM_PORT}58\"%; s%^laddr = \"tcp://127.0.0.1:26657\"%laddr = \"tcp://127.0.0.1:${CUSTOM_PORT}57\"%; s%^pprof_laddr = \"localhost:6060\"%pprof_laddr = \"localhost:${CUSTOM_PORT}60\"%; s%^laddr = \"tcp://0.0.0.0:26656\"%laddr = \"tcp://0.0.0.0:${CUSTOM_PORT}56\"%; s%^prometheus_listen_addr = \":26660\"%prometheus_listen_addr = \":${CUSTOM_PORT}66\"%" $HOME/.uptickd/config/config.toml

```

```bash
#Set config with new custom port
uptickd config node tcp://localhost:${CUSTOM_PORT}57
```

```bash
# Create service file

```bash

```

```bash
# Enable and start service
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable uptickd
sudo systemctl restart uptickd && sudo journalctl -u uptickd -fo cat
```

```bash
# Check status
uptickd status 2>&1 | jq .SyncInfo

#"catching_up": false means that the node is synchronized, we are waiting for complete synchronization
```

***Wallets***

```bash
# Create wallet
uptickd keys add wallet
```

The wallet has been created. In the last line there will be a phrase that must be written down

```bash
# If the wallet was already there, restore it
uptickd keys add wallet --recover

# Insert the seed phrase from your wallet
# If everything is correct, you will see your wallet data
```

***Validator***

Do not forget to create a profile on <https://keybase.io/> and set a profile photo there that will be imported by key and used for your validators.

<pre class="language-bash"><code class="lang-bash"><strong>uptickd tx staking create-validator \
</strong>--amount 1000000auptick \
--pubkey $(uptickd tendermint show-validator) \
--moniker "YOUR_MONIKER_NAME" \
--identity "YOUR_KEYBASE_ID" \
--details "YOUR_DETAILS" \
--website "YOUR_WEBSITE_URL" \
--chain-id uptick_117-1 \
--commission-rate 0.1 \
--commission-max-rate 0.2 \
--commission-max-change-rate 0.01 \
--min-self-delegation 1 \
--from wallet \
--gas 250000 --fees 3000000000000000auptick \
-y
</code></pre>
