# Stake to the Lightning node

After the node is synced (i.e. syncing is false), we can proceed with staking to make it a full **Lightning Node**. First we'd need the "fingerprint" of this node. In another console, execute the following command

`$ ./scriptcli query lightning`

The output should look something like this:

`{`

 `"Address": "0x8f3B...E819",`

 `"BlsPubkey": "a1225b...16ebe",`

 `"BlsPop": "b49fd2a...d025c",`

 `"Signature": "14deb5e...52500",`

 `"Summary": "0x8f3Bc...952500"`

`}`

The summary part is the "fingerprint" we need for staking.  Each Lightning staking transaction requires at least 10,000 (SCPT) Script tokens.
