Bond in simple stake not working

[kidinamoto01]

Hello, it occurs to me that we cannot use simple stake module properly in the latest democoind of SDK v0.14

After I ran

PUBKEY=$(cat ~/.demoind/config/priv_validator.json | jq -r .pub_key.data)
echo $PASS| ./democli bond  --stake=100mycoin --validator=$PUBKEY --name=$NAME --chain-id=test-chain-YCeKC1  --sequence=0

I got the following error

ERROR: CheckTx failed: (303) msg: Unknown code 303

CheckTx cannot pass, and I guess it has to be sth wrong with validator Pubkey

I think we need to change the TM dependency to 0.19 on the master

Yeah, you need to convert the base64 pubkey string to hex. We'll fix the cli so it accepts the base64. #836

Until then, you can use this: https://cryptii.com/base64-to-hex

[kidinamoto01]

@sunnya97 but with TM v0.18, the pub key is already in hex, not base64
