Create wallets(if there is no wallet):

### Stride Wallet

strided keys add $STRIDE_WALLET

(please save mnemonic and wallet address)
### Gaia wallet

gaiad keys add $GAIA_WALLET

(please save mnemonic and wallet address)
## Add wallet to Hermes
### Add wallet Stride

hermes keys restore $STRIDE_CHAIN_ID -n $STRIDE_WALLET -m "your mnemonic phrase"

### Add wallet Gaia

hermes keys restore $GAIA_CHAIN_ID -n $GAIA_WALLET -m "your mnemonic phrase"

## Connecting to the channel
### Enter vars channel from output

HERMES_STRIDE_GAIA_CHANNEL_ID="channel-0" HERMES_GAIA_STRIDE_CHANNEL_ID="channel-0" echo " export HERMES_STRIDE_GAIA_CHANNEL_ID=${HERMES_STRIDE_GAIA_CHANNEL_ID} export HERMES_GAIA_STRIDE_CHANNEL_ID=${HERMES_GAIA_STRIDE_CHANNEL_ID} " >> $HOME/.bash_profile source $HOME/.bash_profile

### Run the service file

sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/hermesd.service > /dev/null <<EOF [Unit] Description=HERMES After=network.target [Service] Type=simple User=$USER ExecStart=$(which hermes) start Restart=on-failure RestartSec=5 LimitNOFILE=6000 [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target EOF

### Restart Hermes for start and run logs

sudo systemctl daemon-reload sudo systemctl enable hermesd sudo systemctl restart hermesd && journalctl -u hermesd -f
