📸Joining Testnet Using Snapshot

We recommend joining the testnet using a snapshot that has been taken after the most recent upgrade. Some of our validator nodes like Lavender.Five Nodes provide snapshot download links. SEDA also provides a snapshot at https://testnet-snapshots.s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/seda_450477.tar.lz4.

# Backup private validator state file if you'd like.
cp $HOME/.sedad/data/priv_validator_state.json $HOME/.sedad/priv_validator_state.json.backup

# Download snapshot, decompress it, and place it under chain directory.
wget https://snapshots.lavenderfive.com/testnet-snapshots/seda/latest.tar.lz4
lz4 -dc < latest.tar.lz4 | tar xvf - -C $HOME/.sedad
