Each Guardian launches a Fedimint Guardian server.


ONE Guardian will act as the Setup Leader.


ONLY the Setup Leader also launches a Chat Server.


After you've launched your servers and watched the video, you're ready to start the setup ceremony!

For detailed instructions on how run through the setup ceremony as the Setup Leader, see the Leader Guide, or if you're joining the ceremony as a follower, see the Follower Guide.
