Connect to Westend

  • Install an Ethereum wallet of your choice, such as Talisman or MetaMask browser extension.
  • Create a new Ethereum account (if you don’t already have one).
note

MetaMask enforces Ethereum contract size limits. If you want to deploy larger contracts, choose Talisman instead. Calling contracts is unaffected by this size limit.
