A mainnet blockchain for deploying decentralized applications and managing digital assets, Metachain One uses METAO and Chain ID 112358 to enable wallet and explorer integration.
Metachain One is a public mainnet blockchain with the native currency METAO, built to deliver high-throughput, low-cost transactions and seamless cross-chain interoperability for dApps and bridges. Primary use cases include cross-chain asset transfers, DeFi swaps and liquidity, payments/remittances, and gaming/NFT movement. For performance comparison, monitor its average gas cost (in METAO), block speed (time to finality), throughput (TPS), and daily active users via the official explorer linked at metachain.one.
Metachain One stands out by prioritizing bridge-centric workflows—fast confirmations and predictable, low gas fees in METAO—so cross-chain transfers settle quickly and cost-effectively relative to congested L1 networks. It emphasizes consistent, short block times and high throughput to keep user experience responsive at scale; compare live metrics (avg gas cost, block speed, TPS, and activity) on metachain.one against other chains when choosing routing for your bridge.
Metachain One uses METAO as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain METAO by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge.
To bridge METAO to Metachain One, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select Metachain One as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
To build on Metachain One 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 Metachain One 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 METAO on Metachain One, ensure your wallet is connected to the Metachain One network, enter the recipient's address, specify the amount of METAO to send, review the gas fee, and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
