| - `start`: This is the command to start the Babylon node. | ||
| - `--chain-id bbn-test-5`: Specifies the ID of the blockchain network you're connecting to. | ||
| - `--home=./nodeDir`: Sets the directory for the node's data and configuration files and is dependant on where the files were generated for you from the initialization. In this case, it's using a directory named "nodeDir" in the current path. | ||
| - `--minimum-gas-prices=0.005ubbn`: This flag sets the minimum gas price for transactions the node will accept. This can also be manually set in the `app.toml` |

If we bring the keyring setup section in this doc, we won't have to duplicate this info.
