<p>In order to create an account you will need two new keys: owener and active. You can ask eosc to create some keys for you:</p>

<p>Next we will create the account <code>tester</code>, but because all accounts need to be created by an existing account we will ask the <code>inita</code> account to create <code>tester</code> using the owner and active keys created above. <code>inita</code> was specified in the genesis file.</p>
<p>Right now this requires eosd to be ran with the <code>--skip-transaction-signatures</code> flag.</p>
