1. How to Add Palm Network to Metamask

Palm Network is essentially a sidechain that is built by and for the Ethereum Ecosystem. Its EVM compatibility (same programming language) makes it possible to add Palm to Metamask straight off the bat. 

To connect to the Palm Network via Metamask you need the right custom RPC points: network name, New RPC URL, Chain ID, and Currency symbol. 

There are two options for adding these details to Metamask: 

• Method 1: Automatically via App.Palm
• Method 2: Manually via “RPC Endpoint”

We will cover them both. Pick a method from the tab to start interacting with Palm NFT dApps and smart contracts!

AUTOMATICALLY

MANUALLY

How to Add Palm Network via App.Palm

App.Palm is the official Palm website that helps users to connect to Palm Network automatically. You just need to connect your wallet and approve the network or token. It also verifies the accuracy of the information and custom RPC points.

To use Palm Website follow the steps below: 

STEP 1: Go to App.Palm.io Website

The first thing we need to do is go to App.palm.io/configure. Before connecting to any site ensure that the URL is correct. 

STEP 2: Click on Add Network (Under Palm Network)

You can either connect your wallet by clicking on the upper right corner where it says [Connect Wallet] or click “Add Network” under Add the Palm Network. 

I will use the [Add Network] button. Click [Add Network]  

STEP 3: Unlock your Metamask Wallet

The next step is to unlock your Metamask wallet browser extension and select the account you want to use (tick the account button). Then, click on [Next] and [Connect]. 

Note: We have assume that you already have the Metamask wallet installed and the recovery phrase (seed phrase) safe. Otherwise follow this link. 

STEP 4: Click on “Approve” Network

After the connection has been established it is time to add the Palm Network. 

To Add the Palm Network just “allow this site to add a network” by clicking on [Approve]. 

STEP 5: Switch Default Network to Palm

Finally, switch your default network (E.g., Ethereum Mainnet) to Palm to connect to the Palm Mainnet.

Step 6 (Optional): You can add the DAI stablecoin token automatically to your wallet. DAI is used extensively on the Palm Network to bridge (transfer) ERC-20 tokens between Palm and Ethereum.

How to add Palm to your Metamask Manually

The second approach is to manually add the Palm Mainnet by using the correct custom RPC points. This is the most common.

The process is slightly different from method one. To use the manual option, follow these steps:

Note:  If you wish to add it on your mobile device (Android or iOS) follow the “Notes” below. 

STEP 1: Unlock your Metamask Wallet

The first step is to unlock your Metamask browser extension or mobile Android/iOS device. Click the browser extension (or mobile app) and enter your secure password in the box.

STEP 2: Click on the Network Dropdown Box & Add Network

When you unlock your wallet, you’ll see the name of your default network as well as a dropdown arrow. Click that option to see a list of all your available networks.

Then, click on Add Network button.

Note: On mobile devices, select the hamburger menu.

STEP 3: Click on “Add a Network Manually”

Following that, you’ll see a screen with the option to automatically add other networks. Fortunately, Palm Mainnet is on that list. You can click on Palm or [Add a Network Manually]

For the sake of this exercise, we will add the network manually via custom RPC points. Click on [Add Network Manually].

Note: On mobile devices, Click on “Add Network.” 

STEP 4: Input Palm RPC Custom Details

The final step is to input the RPC Network details. RPC (remote procedure call) is a URL that allows you to connect to a server node (for example, the Palm server) and interact with that Blockchain.

Note: On mobile devices switch to custom networks and fill up the RPC Custom Details. Then, click “Add.” 

Fill in: 

• Network name: Palm Network
• New RPC URL:  https://palm-mainnet.infura.io/v3/3a961d6501e54add9a41aa53f15de99b
• Chain ID: 11297108109
• Currency symbol:  PALM
• Block explorer URL(Optional):  https://explorer.palm.io/

Adding Palm Blockchain Explorer is optional, but it is always a good idea to fill out all of the information and know where to verify all Palm blockchain transactions

Click on “Save” and Voilá the Metamask network has been changed to Palm.

Now you are ready to interact with the Palm NFT Platform!

2. How Do I GET Palm Token?

Recently, many people have asked me how to get Palm Tokens as they cannot find any portal to buy them directly. I asked myself the same question the first time. 

Palm is the native token of the Palm Network that is issued to pay transaction fees and execute smart contracts on the Palm Blockchain. 

But here’s the confusion, you CANNOT buy PALM tokens! 

Are you KIDDING me? How do I get PALM tokens then?

There are three ways to acquire them: 

1. Via Request Form: This is probably the easiest one. You can request PALM Testnet or Mainnet tokens by filling out this form.
2. Via Token Bridge: If you transfer assets (DAI, ERC-20 tokens, or NFTs) from Ethereum to Palm, the bridge will “gift” you a small amount of PALM.
3. Via Purchasing DAI or NFTs on Palm: Another way to get Palm Tokens is by using Palm network’s fiat onramp to purchase DAI stablecoins. You can also get PALM tokens if you buy NFTs from Palm-supported projects. To buy DAI on Palm follow this LINK.
