Setup MetaMask wallet & Configure it to connect to KYNNO
1 - Install MetaMask Browser Extension
Visit the MetaMask website or browser extension marketplace and download the MetaMask extension for your preferred web browser
2 - Create a MetaMask Wallet
Once the install is completed you should be forwarded to a “Welcome” screen, start by clicking “Get Started”
Then click “Create a Wallet”
MetaMask Password
Create a password to be used to secure your MetaMask plugin. This is so that no-one can see your account info without entering the password.
Wallet Secret Backup Phrase
Your new wallet will have a secret backup phrase. This is for recovering your wallet and must be kept secret. You should write down these words on a piece of paper and store them in a secure location in case of an issue requiring recovery of your wallet.
Connect MetaMask to KYNNO Testnet
Now that your wallet is setup, we need to configure it to connect to Kynno Chain, this is easy to do and easy to change between networks using the button near the top of the app
Click on “Custom RPC” if you have not previously added the KYNNO testnet information
Enter in the KYNNO testnet details as follows:
Network Name: KYNNO Testnet
New RPC URL: https://testnet.kynno.dev
ChainID: 9700
Symbol: KYN
Block Explorer URL: https://evm.kynno.dev/
Then press “Save”
Now that you are connected to the KYNNO testnet network, you need some funds for your wallet. Go to the following link to start the process:
https://faucet.kynno.dev/
Bring up your MetaMask extension and click on your wallet address/account name. This will copy your wallet address to the clipboard for you to paste into the box on the faucet screen.
Keep in mind each wallet can only claim from the faucet once per time period which increases each time you use it. So you might want to come back a few times if you would like all the tokens. When finished, click on the MetaMask extension to confirm you have received the funds.
