This documentation applies to the use of the Botanix EVM Testnet.

What is the Botanix EVM?

The Botanix EVM is fully equivalent with Ethereum or other EVM compatible chains. If you're familiar with using Ethereum mainnet, then the Botanix EVM will be the same except that everything will be denominated in BTC (gas fees etc).

This section walks you through everything you need to get started:

  1. Step 1 - Set up your wallet

  2. Step 2 - Get test funds

  3. Step 3 - Send a transaction

  4. Step 4 - Use dApps

  5. Step 5 - Deploy your first contract / Launch your own token

  6. Step 6 - Withdraw
