Quick Start
Connect to ORBAIC Testnet.
Everything you need to connect a wallet, obtain tACI, verify the network and begin building on ORBAIC.
Developer actions
Start building in minutes
Connect your wallet first, request test ACI and use Explorer to verify every transaction on the public Testnet.
Public Developer Beta
ORBAIC Testnet is non-production infrastructure. tACI is a test token and has no intended monetary value.

From wallet to deployment
Follow these steps in order for the fastest path to a verified ORBAIC development environment.
Add ORBAIC Testnet
Add the network to MetaMask automatically or configure the canonical EVM parameters manually.
Request tACI
Use the public faucet to obtain test tokens for gas fees, transfers and contract testing.
Verify connectivity
Call eth_chainId and confirm the RPC returns 0x158a7 before submitting transactions.
Deploy and inspect
Deploy an EVM-compatible contract and verify the transaction and contract in Explorer.
Verify the connection
First RPC calls
Confirm your EVM connection and current network activity before deploying or sending transactions.
Verify EVM Chain ID
Expected hexadecimal chain ID: 0x158a7.

EVM-compatible deployment
Configure your Ethereum development framework with the ORBAIC EVM RPC, Chain ID 88231 and tACI as the native Testnet token. After deployment, inspect the transaction and contract address using the public Explorer.
