title: Steps to create a validator
---
To create a Solana validator, follow the normal [validator workflow](../../running-validator/validator-start.md)
targeting the [Testnet cluster](../../clusters.md).
Note that Testnet validators are automatically staked by a process that runs
every Epoch. If your validator is running correctly then in a couple of days it
will be staked (and automatically destaked if offline for a prolonged period of
time).

title: Create a validator public key
---
In order to participate you need to first register. See [Registration info](../registration/how-to-register.md).
In order to obtain your allotment of SOL you need to publish your
validator's identity public key under your keybase.io account.
## **Generate Keypair**
1. If you haven't already, generate your validator's identity keypair by running:
```bash
solana-keygen new -o ~/validator-keypair.json
```
2. The identity public key can now be viewed by running:
```bash
solana-keygen pubkey ~/validator-keypair.json
```
> Note: The "validator-keypair.json” file is also your \(ed25519\) private key.
Your validator identity keypair uniquely identifies your validator within the network. **It is crucial to back-up this information.**
If you dont back up this information, you WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RECOVER YOUR VALIDATOR, if you lose access to it. If this happens, YOU WILL LOSE YOUR ALLOCATION OF SOL TOO.
To back-up your validator identify keypair, **back-up your "validator-keypair.json” file to a secure location.**
## Link your Solana pubkey to a Keybase account
You must link your Solana pubkey to a Keybase.io account. The following instructions describe how to do that by installing Keybase on your server.
1. Install [Keybase](https://keybase.io/download) on your machine.
2. Log in to your Keybase account on your server. Create a Keybase account first if you dont already have one. Heres a [list of basic Keybase CLI commands](https://keybase.io/docs/command_line/basics).
3. Create a Solana directory in your public file folder: `mkdir /keybase/public/<KEYBASE_USERNAME>/solana`
4. Publish your validator's identity public key by creating an empty file in your Keybase public file folder in the following format: `/keybase/public/<KEYBASE_USERNAME>/solana/validator-<BASE58_PUBKEY>`. For example:
```bash
touch /keybase/public/<KEYBASE_USERNAME>/solana/validator-<BASE58_PUBKEY>
```
5. To check your public key was published, ensure you can successfully browse to `https://keybase.pub/<KEYBASE_USERNAME>/solana/validator-<BASE58_PUBKEY>`

title: Compensation
---
## Compensation Calculation
Compensation will be calculated according to the compensation design described in [this forum post](https://forums.solana.com/t/tour-de-sol-updates-to-tour-de-sol-and-bug-bounty-compensation-structure/1132).
Please also see section “2\(f\) Tour de Sol Details” of the [TOUR DE SOL PARTICIPATION TERMS](https://drive.google.com/file/d/15ueLG6VJoQ5Hx4rnpjFeuL3pG5DbrBbE/view) for additional compensation details.
## Requirements to Receive Rewards
Participants must have signed the Tour de SOL participation agreement,
passed KYC/AML , as well as filled out the W-8 BEN or W-9 tax form
\(depending on your residency\) prior to participating in the Tour.
A participant may participate in any and all stages that begin after they
complete registration. The final registrations dates will be announced
publicly on a stage-by-stage basis.
## Tax Implications
Participants are entering into a service agreement with Solana with discretionary compensation associated with the services. They are not considered to be a full-time employee of the company and therefore Solana is collecting W-9 and W-8 BEN forms in order to support tax reporting obligations, if applicable. Solana recommends participants consult with a tax accountant to understand any potential tax implications.
Also, as stated in Sections 2i, 2k and 10c of the [TOUR DE SOL PARTICIPATION TERMS](https://drive.google.com/file/d/15ueLG6VJoQ5Hx4rnpjFeuL3pG5DbrBbE/view):
> 2i - To receive any SOL Reward, a Finalist must sign the Companys standard form of SOL Reward Agreement which will include the terms and conditions governing the ownership and use of the SOL that are issued as the SOL Reward, including but not limited to applicable lockups required by securities laws, blackout dates and tax reporting information.
> 2k - To receive any SOL Reward, a Finalist must sign the Companys standard form of SOL Reward Agreement which will include the terms and conditions governing the ownership and use of the SOL that are issued as the SOL Reward, including but not limited to applicable lockups required by securities laws, blackout dates and tax reporting information.
> 10c - You are responsible for complying with all laws and regulations applicable to your transactions on any Protocol, including, but not limited to, the Commodity Exchange Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission \(“CFTC”\), the federal securities laws and the regulations promulgated thereunder by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission \(“SEC”\), and the tax laws applicable to any remuneration received by you from Company.

### More questions related to Prohibited Conduct:
#### As referenced in section “4 Prohibited Conduct”, what would be an example of providing Tour Services from a jurisdiction other than the jurisdiction of my residence? Does this mean my server has to reside in the jurisdiction of my residence?
No. Servers can be in other jurisdictions that differ from a participants residency. By signing the [TOUR DE SOL PARTICIPATION TERMS](https://drive.google.com/file/d/15ueLG6VJoQ5Hx4rnpjFeuL3pG5DbrBbE/view) the participant has represented that they are delivering their services from the US if they reside there or from outside the US if they are not residing within the US.
