+### Multiple nodes:
+Set `N_NODES` (1-5, default 1) to run several sequencer nodes in real consensus, each in its own
+container (`sequencer-node-0`, `sequencer-node-1`, ...). Prometheus scrapes every node, so dashboard
+panels show one series per node (useful for observing proposer/validator agreement). Pass the same
+`N_NODES` when tearing down.
+```bash
+N_NODES=3 ./deployments/monitoring/deploy_local_stack.sh up -d --build
+```
+
+### Real exchange-rate oracle:
+By default the stack uses a dummy constant-rate oracle. Set `PRAGMA_API_KEY` to instead pull live
+ETH/STRK and STRK/USD rates from Pragma (so the SNIP-35 `fee_target` tracks the real STRK/USD rate):
+```bash
+N_NODES=3 PRAGMA_API_KEY=<key> ./deployments/monitoring/deploy_local_stack.sh up -d --build
+```
+
 ## This will deploy a local stack of:
 - Sequencer Node Setup
 - Sequencer Node (using a config generated by **Sequencer Node Setup**.)
