Can I use MetaMask with my own AVADO Node?

Yes! And this is actually the best way to reclaim your privacy. Here are the steps:

  1. In MetaMask go to Settings > Networks

  2. Scroll to the bottom and click the Add Network button

  3. Click Add a network manually

  4. Fill in these values:

Item
Value

Network Name

Give this a name for easy reference, for example, "AVADO"

RPC URL

  • For Geth (choose one):

    • http://ethchain-geth.my.ava.do:8545

    • https://ethchain-geth.my.ava.do

  • For Nethermind (choose one):

    • http://avado-dnp-nethermind.my.ava.do:8545

    • https://avado-dnp-nethermind.my.ava.do

Chain ID

1 - The default Chain ID for Ethereum Mainnet is 1. Metamask will warn that "This Chain ID is currently being used by the mainnet network". This is OK.

Currency symbol

ETH

Block explorer URL

https://etherscan.io

Once you're done, click Save.

You can now use this connection to send all MetaMask chain queries and transactions through your own ETH node!

Remember to change the RPC URL if you switch Execution Client.
