## Installing
Reference implementation of Kava, a blockchain for cross-chain DeFi. Built using the [comsos-sdk](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk).
This guide assumes you have worked with `cosmos-sdk` blockchains previously. If you are just getting started, great! See the complete guide [here](https://medium.com/kava-labs).
## Quick Start
#### Installing KVD
```
git clone https://github.com/Kava-Labs/kava.git
cd kava
# Ensure GO Modules are enabled
export GO111MODULE=on
```sh
make install
```
#### Create a Wallet
```
kvd init --chain-id=kava-testnet-2000 <your-moniker>
kvcli keys add <your_wallet_name>
```
**Be sure to back up your mnemonic!**
#### Create a Genesis Transaction
```
kvd add-genesis-account $(kvcli keys show <your_wallet_name> -a) 1000000000000ukava
kvd gentx --name <your_wallet_name> --amount 1000000000000ukava --ip <your-public-ip>
```
A genesis transaction should be written to `$HOME/.kvd/config/gentx/gentx-<gen_tx_hash>.json`
#### Submit Genesis Transaction
To be included in the genesis file for testnet two, fork the [testnets repo](https://github.com/Kava-Labs/kava-testnets) and copy your genesis transaction to the `2000` directory. Submit your fork including your genesis transaction as a PR.
To join the latest testnet, head over to the [testnet repo](https://github.com/Kava-Labs/kava-testnets).
