Learning objectives

  • 01Produce a complete, coherent genesis file
  • 02Launch a four-validator network that finalises
  • 03Justify every genesis parameter chosen

Guided lab

Assemble a multi-validator genesis from creation transactions, then launch the network.

Independent lab

Add a validator to the running network, with no downtime and no reset.

Security angle

Initial token distribution: why a badly allocated genesis is already a governance flaw.

Assessment

Network reproduced by a peer from the repository, with the same genesis.
