You can move ETH from one network to another only with a specially setup exchange or bridge. The same is true of Ocean Token balances. Each account has one **private key**, one **public key** and one **address**. The public key and address can be calculated from the private key. You must keep the private key secret because it's what's needed to spend/transfer Ether and Ocean Tokens (or to sign transactions of any kind). You can share the address with others. In fact, if you want someone to send some Ether or Ocean Tokens to an account, you give them the account's address. diff --git a/content/setup/keeper.md b/content/setup/keeper.md index 559494dd..2a51da8c 100644 --- a/content/setup/keeper.md +++ b/content/setup/keeper.md @@ -9,13 +9,13 @@ If you want to run a [keeper node (keeper)](/concepts/components#keeper), you ha [Barge](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/barge) uses Docker Compose to run one or more keeper nodes (and other components) in Docker containers on your local machine. -- If you use `--local-kovan-node` or `--local-nile-node`, then it will run one local Parity Ethereum node (as a _user node_, i.e. a non-voting node) and it will connect that node to the [Kovan Testnet](/concepts/testnets/#the-kovan-testnet) or [Nile Testnet](/concepts/testnets/#the-nile-testnet), respectively. +- If you use `--local-pacific-node`, or `--local-nile-node`, then it will run one local Parity Ethereum node (as a _user node_, i.e. a non-voting node) and it will connect that node to the [Pacific Network](/concepts/pacific-network/) or [Nile Testnet](/concepts/testnets/#the-nile-testnet), respectively. - If you use `--local-spree-node` or `--local-ganache-node`, then it will run a strictly-local [Spree Testnet](/concepts/testnets/#a-spree-testnet-for-local-development) or [Ganache-Based Testnet](/concepts/testnets/#a-ganache-based-testnet-for-local-development).
