xai Cloud Server Mining Simple Tutorial

Xai is based on ARB's L3. With Xai, potential billions of traditional gamers can now own and trade valuable in-game items in their favorite games without the need for a cryptocurrency wallet. Anyone can support the Xai network by running a Xai node and earn tokens. However, KYC is required. I recommend running the node on a cloud server to avoid risks such as internet disconnection.

This tutorial requires knowledge of cloud servers. It is recommended to use a server with 2 cores and 4GB memory, running Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.

First, go to the official website and purchase a key. This key is necessary for running the node and the price is currently around 0.53 ETH (ARB chain).
Official website: https://sentry.xai.games/
After purchasing, download the client from the official website and install it. Official website: https://xai.games/
Click on "I ready own a key".
Connect your wallet and authorize it. A webpage will pop up in your browser, where you can sign the transaction with the wallet that purchased the key.
After authorization, the client will generate an operator wallet. You can see it by clicking on "Sentry wallet".
Click "copy" to copy the address. Transfer some ETH on the ARB network to this address. The official recommendation is around 0.02 ETH for running the node for a year.
Export the private key of the operator wallet. In the "Sentry Wallet" interface, click on the three dots and select the "Export Sentry Wallet" option from the menu.

Remote into your cloud server and execute the following commands:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install curl unzip
sudo apt install screen
curl -L -o sentry-node-cli-linux.zip https://github.com/xai-foundation/sentry/releases/download/1.0.29/sentry-node-cli-linux.zip

Create a new window:
```
screen -S XAI
```
Enter the command to enter the console. Your server name will change afterwards:
```
./sentry-node-cli-linux
```
Verify the binding of your wallet to the operator wallet by entering the following command:
```
list-operators
```
Then enter the address of your key wallet. Your operator wallet will be displayed. If it is correct, proceed to the next step.
Enter the following command to start the node:
```
boot-operator
```
Enter the private key of the operator wallet.

Wait for a while and you can start mining. Afterwards, you can proceed with the KYC process. This tutorial ends here. If you have any questions, you can DM me on Twitter or discuss in the comments.
