Update the .env file with your Bittensor validator wallet information:
```
wallet_name="default"
wallet_hotkey="default"
```
Run the Miner From the root of your project directory, run the following command:
```
comx module serve comtensor.miner.model.Miner <name-of-your-com-key> --subnets-whitelist 6 --ip <text> --port <number>
