Register your username at the faucet address.
Use the get_private_key_from_password command in cli_wallet with the password downloaded during your username signup to access your private keys. You will need owner, active, and memo
### Add this seed node to config.ini
```
vim witness_node_data_dir/config.ini
import_keys into your cli_wallet
seed-node = 213.184.225.234:59500
