Connecting to the Helios Network
To interact with Helios, you need to connect your wallet using RPC settings. Helios is fully EVM-compatible, so it works with any Ethereum-based wallet that allows custom networks.
Network Details
| Network | Chain ID | RPC URL | Block Explorer |
|---|---|---|---|
| Helios Testnet | 4141 | https://dataseed-testnet.helioschain.network | https://explorer-testnet.helioschain.network |
| Helios Mainnet | 4242 | https://dataseed.helioschain.network | https://explorer.helioschain.network |
Testnet and mainnet details will be updated once live.
Adding Helios to Your Wallet
Using Metamask
- Open Metamask and go to Settings > Networks.
- Click Add a Network and enter the Helios RPC details.
- Save the settings and switch to the Helios network.
Using Rabby, Trust Wallet, or Other EVM Wallets
- The process is similar to Metamask. Look for "Add Custom Network" in your wallet settings and input the Helios RPC details.
Using Cosmos Wallets (Keplr, Leap)
Helios supports Cosmos-compatible wallets, but Cosmos interactions are optional.
- In Keplr or Leap, navigate to "Add Custom Chain" and enter the RPC details.
- Ensure that your Cosmos wallet supports EVM transactions if needed.
Checking Connection
Once you've added the Helios network:
- Try sending a small transaction to verify connectivity.
- Check your wallet balance using the Helios Explorer.
