# Play with your blockchain

Now that you have made the required updates to you new chain, it's time to test it.

## Start the blockchain

To start your blockchain in development, run the following command:

```bash
ignite chain serve
```

The `serve` command builds the chain binary file, initializes a data directory, and starts a node in development. 

For all subsequent commands, you use a terminal window that is different from the window you started the chain in.

## Create a scavenge

Follow the instructions and submit a new scavenge. 

The first parameter is the `solution`, but you should also know what the actual question is that your solution solves (the `description`).

You can make the challenge question something family-friendly like `What's brown and sticky?`. Of course, the only solution to this question is `A stick`.

Next, you must specify the `reward`. Give away `100token` as a reward for solving the scavenge.

Now you have all the pieces needed to create your message. Piece them all together in the command and add the flag `--from` so the CLI knows who is sending it:

```bash
scavenged tx scavenge submit-scavenge "A stick" "What's brown and sticky?" 100token --from alice
```

The results:

## Commit a solution

Follow the instructions and submit the answer as a commit on behalf of `bob`:

```bash
scavenged tx scavenge commit-solution "A stick" --from bob
```

The results:

## Query for a list of commits

```bash
scavenged q scavenge list-commit --output json
```

The results:

```json

    }
  ],
  "pagination": { "next_key": null, "total": "0" }
}
```

You don't need to put the `solutionHash` because it can be generated by hashing the actual solution.

Since all you need is the solution again, you can send and confirm the final message:

## Reveal a solution

```bash
scavenged tx scavenge reveal-solution "A stick" --from bob
```

Congratulations, you have built and tested a scavenge hunt blockchain!
