Step 1 - Set up your wallet
Resetting Botanix Testnet in MetaMask
Were you one of the early adopters and tried the Botanix Testnet in the previous version? Make sure that you delete the Botanix Testnet in your wallet and that you add it again using our Bridge. If you don't do this, you might experience some issues.
Install an EVM wallet
The Botanix EVM is fully equivalent with Ethereum. Because of that, it works with all EVM wallets right out of the box, such as MetaMask. (If you're not familiar with the identity manager, wallet, and web3 passport that is MetaMask, get started here).
Wallets for testnet

Automatically
If you want to automatically connect to the Botanix testnet, simply navigate to our Bridge and we will guide you through the process.

All you need to interact with Botanix is to download MetaMask, which you can install as a browser extension or mobile app.
