Quickstart: I want to use the wallet

You will need

• A supported wallet app (web wallet for testnet)
• A safe place to store backups (offline recommended)

Steps

1. Open the wallet and create/import an account.

2. Confirm the wallet shows the expected network identity before signing anything:

• network_id: catalyst-testnet
• chain_id: 0xbf8457c (hex) / 200820092 (decimal)

Canonical defaults (for the current testnet wallet implementation):

• WebWallet/README.md

3. Request testnet funds from the faucet (testnet only):

• See Faucet → User guide.

Verify

• You can view your address and transactions in the explorer. See Explorer → User guide.

Troubleshooting

• If the wallet refuses to sign, it’s often because chain identity mismatched (wrong RPC URL / wrong network).
• Never paste your private key into websites or support chats. See Wallets → User guide.
