## Running The Beacon Chain
To start the system, we need to seed the beacon chain state with an initial validator set for local development.

You'll also need a special data directory where all the beacon chain data will be persisted to. Then, you can run the node as follows:

This will connect you to your running beacon node and listen for shard/slot assignments! The beacon node will update you at every cycle transition and shuffle your validator into different shards and slots in order to vote on or propose beacon blocks.
if you want to run multiple validator clients, each one needs to have its own data directory where it will persist information, so create a new one each time and pass it into the validator command with the flag `--datadir /path/to/datadir`.
