## Usage
Simply run `./account_manager generate` to generate a new random private key,
which will be automatically saved to the correct directory.
If you prefer to use our "deterministic" keys for testing purposes, simply
run `./accounts_manager generate_deterministic -i <index>`, where `index` is
the validator index for the key. This will reliably produce the same key each time
and save it to the directory.
