The first is to use the public Tangerine RPC endpoint, the second one is to run a fullnode and sync the fullnode locally. + +## Public RPC Endpoints + +The public RPC endpoints are available at: + +|Network|RESTful|WebSocket|Chain ID| +|---|---|---|---| +|Mainnet|https://mainnet-rpc.tangerine-network.io|wss://mainnet-rpc.tangerine-network.io/ws|373| +|Testnet|https://testnet-rpc.tangerine-network.io|wss://testnet-rpc.tangerine-network.io/ws|374| + +Point your Tangerine/Ethereum client to this RPC endpoint and you should be able to read from and send transactions to Tangerine networks. + +## Syncing Fullnode + +The testnet could be synchronized with the following command: + +``` +gtan --testnet +``` + +If you don't know how to build the `gtan` binary, please follow the wiki page [here](Building-Tangerine.md). + +It may take a few hours before your fullnode is fully-synchronised. When it does, you can now point your Tangerine/Ethereum client to http://localhost:8545 + +Note: Tangerine's current testnet is still unstable, it might be reset at some point. If it does, you might have to remove the data directory (`$HOME/.tangerine` on Linux, and `$HOME/Library/Tangerine` on MacOS) and re-sync the node. |
