An EVM-compatible QuarkChain Devnet Shard 3 (Chain ID 110004) delivering high-throughput, low-fee transactions via elastic sharding and native cross-shard interoperability for scalable dApps.
QuarkChain Devnet Shard 3 is an EVM-compatible shard in QuarkChain’s sharded mainnet used by developers to deploy and test high-throughput dApps and cross-shard asset flows under production-like conditions. It’s ideal for cross-chain bridging, micro-payments, and NFT/DeFi workloads that need low fees and fast confirmations. Performance on Devnet typically shows seconds-level block times per shard, network-wide throughput demonstrated in public tests at tens of thousands TPS, and gas costs at fractions of a QKC per simple transfer (actual values vary with load and configuration).
QuarkChain Devnet Shard 3 is unique because it inherits QuarkChain’s native multi-shard architecture with a root chain, enabling secure cross-shard transactions and horizontal scaling without external rollups. Compared with monolithic L1s, it offers lower average gas, faster per-shard block speeds, and high TPS that scales as shards are added, while retaining familiar EVM tooling. Activity is isolated per shard, reducing congestion spillover and improving predictability for bridges and latency-sensitive dApps.
QuarkChain Devnet Shard 3 uses QKC as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain QKC by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge.
To bridge QKC to QuarkChain Devnet Shard 3, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select QuarkChain Devnet Shard 3 as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
To build on QuarkChain Devnet Shard 3 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 QuarkChain Devnet Shard 3 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 QKC on QuarkChain Devnet Shard 3, ensure your wallet is connected to the QuarkChain Devnet Shard 3 network, enter the recipient's address, specify the amount of QKC to send, review the gas fee, and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
