FLEEK NETWORK Phase {1}
Project Information
DESCRIPTION
Fleek Network is a decentralized edge platform designed to make it easier to create and run performant web services (CDN, serverless operations, and so on). Fleek Network's globally distributed and autonomously controlled network of edge nodes enables developers to design and use a wide range of edge services with ease. These services inherit cryptographically and economically secure infrastructure, guaranteed node and geographic coverage, stable and predictable pricing, and uniform quality and performance across all network services. The purpose of Fleek Network is to provide a platform from which all Web3 protocols, middleware, services, and applications may further decentralize their stack without sacrificing cost, performance, complexity, or developer/end-user experience.

Confirm in your wallet. Then you get
run this again, this time you get running and staked
curl -w "\p" localhost:4230/health
To see the amount staked run, answer yes to the question prompts
curl https://get.fleek.network/node_details | bash
You can watch the Node output logs by running the command
tail -f /var/log/lightning/output.log
For diagnostics run the command:
tail -f /var/log/lightning/diagnostic.log
Run this script to get the health check overview:
curl -sS https://get.fleek.network/healthcheck | bash
enter yes for the answers to the prompt, output should look like this if everything works fine.
Congratulations
Update your node
