There was a change in the format of the ~/.gaiad/config/priv_key.json
in the latest release of Tendermint core (through go-amino
).
To switch your key to the new format you will need to change three type
fields from random strings to human readable names. The following fields need to be changed:
.pub_key.type -> tendermint/PubKeyEd25519
.last_signature.type -> tendermint/SignatureEd25519
.priv_key.type -> tendermint/PrivKeyEd25519
Examples of new and old files are below:
