```bash
gaiacli account <account_cosmosaccaddr> --block=<block_height>
```
## Create your Own Testnet
To create your own testnet, first each validator will need to install gaiad and run gen-tx
```bash
gaiad init gen-tx --name <account_name>
```
This populations `$HOME/.gaiad/gen-tx/` with a json file.
Now these json files need to be aggregated together via Github, a Google form, pastebin or other methods.
Place all files on one computer in `$HOME/.gaiad/gen-tx/`
```bash
gaiad init --gen-txs -o --chain=<chain-name>
```
This will generate a `genesis.json` in `$HOME/.gaiad/config/genesis.json` distribute this file to all validators on your testnet.
