Connecting via Web3 Wallet

To start trading on ElectroSwap, you'll first need to connect your Web3 wallet to Electroneum Mainnet. If you're using a mobile device, please be sure to see Mobile Device Access section below. Follow these simple steps to get connected:

Shortcut Method

  • Head over to ChainList.org, find "Electroneum Mainnet" and click "Connect Wallet"
  • Once your wallet is connected, click "Add to Metamask" and all the details will be added to MetaMask for you. You just need to confirm in MetaMask.

ChainList Shortcut

Note

We highly recommend using Ankr's free and public RPC (see below) over the official Electroneum RPC for stability reasons. The official RPC tends to throttle requests which can result in a poor user experience.

If you prefer manually entering the fields into your Web3 wallet, proceed with the manual method below.

Mobile Device Access

If you're using a mobile device and encountering issues connecting to ElectroSwap through standard mobile browsers like Safari or Chrome, there's a workaround:

  • Open the MetaMask app on your mobile device (requires download from your Android or iOS app store).
  • Use the built-in browser within the MetaMask app (bottom menu, looks like a compass) to navigate to https://app.electroswap.io

Manual Method for MetaMask

Step 1: Open MetaMask

  • Open the MetaMask extension on your browser. If you haven't installed MetaMask yet, you can download it from the official website. Follow the instructions to setup your first account, or import/restore your account from a previous 12/24 word recovery phrase if you have one.

Step 2: Access the Network Selection

  • At the top of the MetaMask interface, where it displays the network you're currently connected to (likely "Ethereum Mainnet"), click to open the dropdown menu.

MetaMask Step 1

  • Select "Add Network"

MetaMask Step 2

Step 3: Add a Network

  • Scroll down in the dropdown menu and select "Manually add network".

Step 4: Enter Electroneum Mainnet Details

  • In the "Network Name" field, enter Electroneum Mainnet.
  • In the "New RPC URL" field, enter https://rpc.ankr.com/electroneum
  • For the "Chain ID", enter 52014
  • In the "Currency Symbol" field enter ETN.
  • In the "Block Explorer URL" field, enter https://blockexplorer.electroneum.com
Note

We highly recommend users sign up for a "Freemium" account on Ankr's website, and use a personalized HTTPS RPC endpoint instead of the default https://rpc.ankr.com/electroneum one above. Doing so may improve reliability when interacting with the Electroneum 2.0 chain via your wallet.

MetaMask Step 4

Step 5: Save and Connect

  • After entering all the required information, click "Save" to add Electroneum Mainnet to your MetaMask wallet.
  • MetaMask will automatically switch to Electroneum Mainnet once it's added. If not, you can switch manually by clicking on the network selection dropdown at the top and choosing Electroneum.

MetaMask Step 5
