### Running vinced Node/Validators

You may run the following commands if you wish to manage your keys on a local vinced node or validator.

* **Viewing keys**: `vinced keys list` to view all Keys in your keyring
* **Adding or recovering keys**: `vinced keys add <keyname> --recover --keyring-backend=file`

You can import or add a new key with or without an existing seed phrase. If you wish to recover keys, then use the command `--recover`. This uses the `file` keyring backend, prompting you to enter a password and encrypting your keys in the keyring folder.
