Prerequisites

Obtain and Fund a Wallet

Any Ethereum-compatible wallets will work with Vana/Volara. We recommend getting started with metamask.

Create a Metamask Wallet

Create a Metamask wallet with this guide (opens in a new tab)

Obtain and save your <your_private_key> with this guide (opens in a new tab) (You'll need this later)

Fund Your Wallet

Volara uses the Vana network, so you'll need to fund your wallet with Vana tokens before you can begin mining.

The Vana faucet can fund your address here (opens in a new tab)

Add the Vana Network to Metamask

You can add the Vana network to your wallet to see Vana and Volara tokens here (opens in a new tab)
