Getting Started with EVM Module on DuKong Testnet

MANTRA Chain with EVM support will be released to DuKong Production Testnet on Monday, June 23rd. This is facilitated by the release of v5.0.0-rc0 of mantrachain binary.

PLEASE NOTE!

EVM on MANTRA Chain is still under development, audit, and final review. In addition, several supporting tools are still being worked on: some engineering knowledge and potential debugging will be required in order to utilise it! We are working our hardest to roll out development support tooling and additional infrastructure!

Overview

MANTRA Chain Testnet, DUKONG (mantra-dukong-1) is our primary testnet and has formally been configured to support the EVM module built for cosmos chains. For access or assistance, please reach out to: [email protected]

In the pages following - we will guide you on recommended local environment setup, configuration, and steps to be able to interact with EVM on MANTRA Chain (mantra-dukong-1 ).

For those upgrading from existing node configurations on MANTRA, see the EVM Upgrade Guide here: https://github.com/MANTRA-Chain/net/blob/main/mantra-dukong-1/upgrades/v5/guide.md#-extra-evm-configuration-for-v5-upgrade
