Add LAYERK Chain on Metamask

You'll need MetaMask installed and set up first. If not, follow the MetaMask setup steps in the previous section.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Open MetaMask

  • Click the MetaMask icon in your browser toolbar

  • Unlock your wallet with your password (if prompted)

Step 2: Open Network Settings

  • In MetaMask, click the network dropdown at the top center (it might say "Ethereum Mainnet" by default)

  • Select "Add network" or click "Add network manually" at the bottom

Step 3: Enter LayerK Chain Details

Use the information provided below to configure the LayerK network.

Field
Value

Network Name

LayerK Mainnet

New RPC URL

https://mainnet-rpc.layerk.com

Chain ID

529375

Currency Symbol

LYK

Block Explorer URL

https://explorer.layerk.com

What these fields mean:

  • Network Name – A custom name for your network

  • RPC URL – The endpoint MetaMask uses to connect to LayerK

  • Chain ID – Unique ID for LayerK (avoids conflict with other chains)

  • Currency Symbol – Native token symbol (for LayerK, it's LYK)

  • Block Explorer – Lets you view on-chain activity and transactions

Step 4: Save the Network

  • Click "Save"

  • MetaMask will automatically switch to LayerK Mainnet

  • You can now use the LayerK network in MetaMask and interact with apps like Homnifi or the LayerK DAO

Troubleshooting Tips

  • If the RPC URL isn't working, check for typos or visit layerk.com for updated endpoints

  • If you see an error saying "Chain ID already exists," you may have added it already; just switch to it

  • If transactions don't go through, make sure you have enough LYK tokens for gas fees
