## Parameters [#parameters]

| Parameter     | Type   | Description                             |

## CLI [#cli]

```bash
btcli query validator-basket-nav --hotkey <ss58|name> --json
```

## Python [#python]

Namespace method (autocomplete, signature help):

```python
import bittensor as bt

sub = bt.Subtensor()
result = sub.staking.validator_basket_nav(hotkey_ss58="5F...")
```

Or dispatch by name, as an agent would:

```python
result = sub.read("validator_basket_nav", hotkey_ss58="5F...")
```

Async is the same surface awaited: `async with bt.Subtensor() as client:`.
