lavap tx pairing stake-provider LAV1 "50000000000ulava" "lava.your-domain.com:443,1" 1 --from $MONIKER --provider-moniker $MONIKER --keyring-backend "test" --chain-id "lava-testnet-2" --gas="auto" --gas-adjustment "1.5" --gas "auto" --gas-prices "0.0001ulava"

Step 13: Test RPC provider again​

lavap test rpcprovider --from $MONIKER  --endpoints "lava.your-domain.com:443,LAV1"
