An EVM-compatible blockchain mainnet, DCHAIN uses ETH as its native currency (chain ID 2716446429837000) and emphasizes Ethereum tooling compatibility for straightforward, production-ready dApp deployment.
DCHAIN is a mainnet blockchain from the DCHAIN Foundation that uses ETH as its native currency and is built for cross-chain interoperability. It enables secure asset transfers, liquidity routing, and generalized messaging for bridges and multi-chain dApps across DeFi, payments, and NFTs. Live network metrics—average gas fees, block time, TPS, and activity—are available on the official site (https://www.dchain.foundation/) to help compare performance.
DCHAIN stands out by charging gas in ETH on its own mainnet, streamlining UX for Ethereum users and tooling. Its architecture is optimized for bridge-centric workflows and fast settlement while emphasizing transparent performance reporting; relative to Ethereum Mainnet (~12s blocks, ~15 TPS, variable fees), DCHAIN targets faster blocks and lower costs—refer to the live dashboard for current averages. See https://www.dchain.foundation/ for up-to-date figures on gas costs, block speed, TPS, and active addresses.
DCHAIN uses ETH as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain ETH by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge.
To bridge ETH to DCHAIN, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select DCHAIN as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
To build on DCHAIN you can use thirdweb, which provides an easy way to build, monetize and scale your apps, games or agents. You can find detailed guides and documentation on https://portal.thirdweb.com to get started quickly.
To add DCHAIN to your wallet, you can connect your wallet and click on [Add to Wallet] button at the top of the page. Alternatively, you can add the network manually using the RPC URL and chain details and add it to your wallet's network settings.
To send ETH on DCHAIN, ensure your wallet is connected to the DCHAIN network, enter the recipient's address, specify the amount of ETH to send, review the gas fee, and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
