+#  Refactored bloxberg node
+
+The original bloxberg node config was kind of annoying so I am running it more like vanilla parity. This way you can pass command flags directly to parity.
+## Make some keys
+```
+docker build -t bloxie . && docker run -v ${PWD}/keys:/root/keys --rm -it -t bloxie account new --chain /root/bloxberg.json --keys-path /root/keys
+```
+
+## Enter the signer address and passwords in the config files
+
+validator.toml
+```

+#CHANGE ENGINE SIGNER TO VALIDATOR ADDRESS

+reseal_on_txs = "none"
+force_sealing = true

+# bloxbergValidatorSetup
+This is a Docker image for running a validator node on the bloxberg blockchain. 
+
+Remote Machine Minimum System Requirements:
+* Ubuntu 16.04 or 18.04 Image (Other Operating Systems can work, but commands may have to be altered)
+* Minimum 2 CPU
+* Minimum 2GB RAM Memory
+* We recommend for future proofing at least 100 GB of SSD storage.
+
+These are simply the minimum requirements and we do recommend to allocate more resources to ensure stability.
+
+With the latest update to parity 2.7, it is also necessary for your server CPU to support aes. This can be found by running:
+
+```
+cat /proc/cpuinfo
+```
+on the server and checking in the flags column for aes.
+
+Additionally, the blockchain connects to other nodes via port 30303, so it is important this port is open via your firewall beforehand.
+
+In the `docker-compose.yml` you will also see the ports 8545 (JSON-RPC API) and 8546 (Web-Socket). These can be used to interact with blockchain via means of your local node but don't need to be accesible over the internet.
+
+## Setup Process
+
+1. Clone the repository to the server you are hosting the validator node.
+2. Edit the validator.yml with a text editor (nano or vim) and change the NATIP variable to your external IP. Save this file
+3. Edit the `validator/validator.pwd` file and insert a secure password. This will be used to encrypt your private key.
+4. Run 'sudo ./setup.sh'.
+5. Run 'docker-compose -f validator.yml up'. This will start the docker container and generate an ethereum address and an enode address. Send these both to the bloxberg consortium.
+6. Use Ctrl+C to shut down the docker container. Lastly, run 'docker-compose -f validator.yml up -d'. This will daemonize the container and start running the validator node in the background.
