Quick Start Guide

This guide will help you get up and running with INTAGIUM in just a few minutes. You'll learn how to create a wallet, get test tokens, and make your first transaction.

Step 1: Create a Wallet​

First, let's create a new wallet to interact with the INTAGIUM blockchain:

# Create a new wallet with INTAGIUM address
intagiumd keys add my-wallet

# Output example:
# - name: my-wallet
#   type: local
#   address: intag1abc123def456ghi789jkl012mno345pqr678st
#   pubkey: '{"@type":"/cosmos.crypto.secp256k1.PubKey","key":"A..."}'
#   mnemonic: "word1 word2 word3 ... word24"
tip

Save your mnemonic phrase securely! This is the only way to recover your wallet if you lose access.

Convert to Ethereum Address​

One of INTAGIUM's unique features is the dual address system. You can convert your Cosmos address to an Ethereum-compatible address:

# Convert to Ethereum-compatible address
intagiumd dual-address convert intag1abc123def456ghi789jkl012mno345pqr678st

# Output: 0x742d35Cc6634C0532925a3b8D0C9C0E3C5d2B8E1

Both addresses represent the same account and can be used interchangeably!

Step 2: Get Test Tokens​

To interact with the testnet, you'll need some test tokens. Use the INTAGIUM faucet:

Using the Web Faucet​

  1. Visit https://faucet.intagium.com
  2. Enter your address (either intag1... or 0x... format)
  3. Complete the captcha
  4. Click "Request Tokens"
  5. Wait for confirmation (usually 10-30 seconds)

Using the API​

# Request tokens via API
curl -X POST "https://faucet.intagium.com/api/request" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "address": "intag1abc123def456ghi789jkl012mno345pqr678st",
    "amount": "10000000"
  }'

# Response example:
{
  "success": true,
  "txhash": "A1B2C3D4E5F6...",
  "amount": "10000000",
  "message": "Tokens sent successfully"
}

Check Your Balance​

# Check balance
intagiumd query bank balance intag1abc123def456ghi789jkl012mno345pqr678st intag

# Output example:
# balance:
#   amount: "10000000"
#   denom: intag

Step 3: Send Your First Transaction​

Now let's send some tokens to another address:

# Send tokens using INTAG address
intagiumd tx bank send my-wallet intag1def456ghi789jkl012mno345pqr678stabc123 1000000intag \
  --chain-id intagium-testnet-1 \
  --gas auto \
  --gas-adjustment 1.5 \
  --fees 5000intag

# Or send using Ethereum-compatible address (same result!)
intagiumd tx bank send my-wallet 0x8E2B3F4C5D6A7B8C9D0E1F2A3B4C5D6E7F8A9B0C 1000000intag \
  --chain-id intagium-testnet-1 \
  --gas auto \
  --gas-adjustment 1.5 \
  --fees 5000intag

Verify the Transaction​

# Query transaction by hash
intagiumd query tx [TRANSACTION_HASH]

# Check recipient balance
intagiumd query bank balance intag1def456ghi789jkl012mno345pqr678stabc123 intag

Step 4: Configure Your Environment​

For easier interaction, configure your CLI with testnet defaults:

# Configure your client for testnet
intagiumd config chain-id intagium-testnet-1
intagiumd config node https://rpc.testnet.intagium.com:443
intagiumd config keyring-backend test

# Verify connection
intagiumd status

Using MetaMask​

INTAGIUM's dual address system means you can also use MetaMask for Web3 interactions:

Add INTAGIUM Testnet to MetaMask​

Network Details:

  • Network Name: INTAGIUM Testnet
  • RPC URL: https://web3.testnet.intagium.com
  • Chain ID: 2024 (Ethereum-compatible chain ID)
  • Currency Symbol: INTAG
  • Block Explorer: https://explorer.testnet.intagium.com

Import Your Wallet​

You can import your INTAGIUM wallet into MetaMask using the same mnemonic phrase you received when creating your wallet.

Faucet Limits and Best Practices​

  • Maximum per request: 10,000,000 µINTAG (10 INTAG)
  • Cooldown period: 24 hours per address
  • Daily limit: 100,000,000 µINTAG (100 INTAG) per IP

Best Practices:

  • Only request what you need for testing
  • Use multiple addresses if you need more tokens
  • Monitor your balance and request more before running out
  • Report any faucet issues through official channels
