Download binary files

cd $HOME
rm -rf nibiru
git clone https://github.com/NibiruChain/nibiru.git
cd nibiru
git checkout v2.11.0

make install

nibid version
# version: 2.11.0

We initialize the node to create the necessary configuration files

nibid init <YOUR_MONIKER_NAME> --chain-id cataclysm-1

Download Genesis

wget -O $HOME/.nibid/config/genesis.json "htts://raw.githubusercontent.com/NibiruChain/Networks/main/Mainnet/cataclysm-1/genesis.json"

# Let's check the genesis
sha256sum ~/.nibid/config/genesis.json
# 66c3bf943254a7d698849d201e0b7ae1ba7a94118b73f19916727742e26efd99

At this stage, we can download the address book

wget -O $HOME/.nibid/config/addrbook.json "https://share.utsa.tech/nibiru/addrbook.json"
