 ## Initialize Validator Node
 
+**Not required if you have already initialized before**

+```sh
+# Initialize the validator node
+chibaclonkd init <your-node-moniker> --chain-id chibaclonk_81337-3

+Running the above commands will initialize the validator node with default configuration. The config files will be saved in the default location (`~/.chibaclonkd/config`).
