Hi all,  
sorry for stupid questons,

Executed steps 1-3 from the docs ( [Node Bootstrap - Flow Documentation](https://docs.onflow.org/node-operation/node-bootstrap) ).  
Can anyone explain how should I get the PULL token?

Welcome to the community! There is no such thing as a stupid question. 🙂

We have a long waitlist for running nodes, so I would probably wait to start your node until you can get approved. Go to [Node Validators](https://www.onflow.org/node-validators) to sign up.
