In order to run the beacon node a stable access to an existing web3 node is needed. The web3 node default account has to have enough ETH to make the deposit to become a validator.
1. Make a deposit and generate validator private key if it doesn't exists. WARNING: This will spend 32ETH (+gas) from the default web3 account.
```
beacon_node makeDeposits --totalValidators=1 --depositWeb3Url=ws://$WEB3_URL --depositContractAddress=$DEPOSIT_CONTRACT_ADDRESS
```
2. Run the node
```
beacon_node --depositWeb3Url=ws://$WEB3_URL --depositContractAddress=$DEPOSIT_CONTRACT_ADDRESS
```
