QGOV Onboarding in 5 Minutes
Install MetaMask
First, install the browser add-on 'MetaMask'. After successful installation, add a custom network and enter the QGOV network configuration details that are documented within MetaMask tutorial. Finally, create two new accounts so you can later send QGOV tokens from one to another.
Network Configuration
You might need to configure your wallet to support and accept QGOV tokens. To do this, you need to connect to the QGOV testnet by using the following network details:
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Network name | QGOV Testnet |
| RPC-URL | https://rpc.qgov-test.io |
| Chain-ID | 35443 |
| Symbol | QGOV |
| Block-Explorer-URL | https://explorer.qgov-test.io |
Note: These parameters are valid for QGOV testnet only!
Get your first QGOV
If you don't own QGOV tokens already, get some for free using our faucet at https://faucet.qgov-test.io. Enter your wallet address, select the token you want to receive (QGOV, QUSD, QBTC, QUSDC, QDAI), solve Captcha, and click on "Claim tokens".
Here are some rules for claiming tokens via faucet:
- You can fund the same account address only once in a day
- You can claim tokens up to 10 times per device in a day
- You can't claim tokens if you have equal (or more) amount of appropriate tokens on your account balance
If the faucet is funded enough, your balance will increase within a couple of seconds. If the faucet has run out of funds or displays unknown error, drop us a note on our Discord server.
Verify QGOV Funding
After some seconds, open MetaMask and select the wallet account you just funded. It should now have received a couple of QGOVs and should display an according balance.
Send QGOV
Within MetaMask, click on "send", then "transfer between my accounts" and select the second wallet account you just created. Finish the transaction and wait for the entered amount of QGOV to be transferred from account to account. You can verify the transaction within the QGOV block explorer located at https://explorer.qgov-test.io. You can of course send QGOV to any other wallet address you know.
Earn Rewards
Now open a new tab and head over to https://hq.qgov-test.io. If you have MetaMask still activated and connected to QGOV testnet, you should be browsing the QGOV decentralized app that allows users to exercise governance rights, earn rewards on QGOV tokens or do some saving and borrowing with QGOV DeFi.
