celocli validator:affiliate ARG1

Affiliate a Validator with a Validator Group. This allows the Validator Group to add that Validator as a member. If the Validator is already a member of a Validator Group, affiliating with a different Group will remove the Validator from the first group's members.

USAGE
$ celocli validator:affiliate ARG1 --from <value> [--globalHelp] [--yes]

ARGUMENTS
ARG1 ValidatorGroup's address

FLAGS
--from=0xc1912fEE45d61C87Cc5EA59DaE31190FFFFf232d (required) Signer or Validator's
address

DESCRIPTION
Affiliate a Validator with a Validator Group. This allows the Validator Group to add

celocli validator:update-bls-public-key

Update the BLS public key for a Validator to be used in consensus.

USAGE
$ celocli validator:update-bls-public-key --from <value> --blsKey <value> --blsPop <value>
[--globalHelp]

FLAGS
--blsKey=0x (required) BLS Public Key
--blsPop=0x (required) BLS Proof-of-Possession
--from=0xc1912fEE45d61C87Cc5EA59DaE31190FFFFf232d (required) Validator's address
--globalHelp View all available global flags

DESCRIPTION
Update the BLS public key for a Validator to be used in consensus.

Regular (ECDSA and BLS) key rotation is recommended for Validator operational
security.

WARNING: By default, the BLS key used by the validator node is derived from the ECDSA
private key. As a result, rotating the BLS key without rotating the ECDSA key will
result in validator downtime without special configuration. Use this method only if
you know what you are doing.

EXAMPLES
update-bls-key --from 0x47e172F6CfB6c7D01C1574fa3E2Be7CC73269D95 --blsKey 0x4fa3f67fc913878b068d1fa1cdddc54913d3bf988dbe5a36a20fa888f20d4894c408a6773f3d7bde11154f2a3076b700d345a42fd25a0e5e83f4db5586ac7979ac2053cd95d8f2efd3e959571ceccaa743e02cf4be3f5d7aaddb0b06fc9aff00 --blsPop 0xcdb77255037eb68897cd487fdd85388cbda448f617f874449d4b11588b0b7ad8ddc20d9bb450b513bb35664ea3923900
