Adding Virtual TestNets To Wallets
Virtual TestNets can be added as providers in wallets like Metamask. This allows you to interact with the Virtual TestNet through a wallet to send and receive funds between accounts.
When creating a Virtual TestNet, it’s recommended to set a different chain ID from the parent chain ID.
For example, if you’re creating a Virtual TestNet that uses Mainnet as the base network (chainID 1), specify a different chainID: 73571.
Adding a Virtual TestNet as a provider in MetaMask
From the Virtual TestNets dashboard,
- Click Add to MetaMask. This will work if you configure your Virtual TestNet with a unique chain ID.
- Follow the instructions in Metamask and approve the network.
To manually add Virtual TestNets to MetaMask’s list of available networks, follow these steps:
- Create a Virtual TestNet with a custom chain ID.
- Copy the Public RPC link.
- Open MetaMask and click the network selector.
- Click Add network, and in the next window click Add a network manually.
- Select an arbitrary name (e.g. Virtual Mainnet).
- Paste the RPC URL.
- Paste the chain ID you chose.
- Paste the block explorer URL.
- Click Save.
