Frequently asked questions

QuarkChain Devnet Shard 5 is an EVM-compatible shard on QuarkChain’s sharded mainnet, paid in QKC, commonly used as a developer-focused environment for staging dApps and bridge interoperability tests. Typical metrics include very low QKC gas fees, per-shard block times on the order of seconds, and aggregate throughput scaling to thousands of TPS across shards; activity is primarily development and QA, so congestion is uncommon. It’s ideal for benchmarking cross-shard transfers, liquidity routing, and cost/performance before wider deployment.

It offers native cross-shard functionality via a root–shard architecture that enables atomic, deterministic cross-shard transactions without relying on external bridges. Because each shard is EVM-compatible under shared security, apps can scale horizontally while maintaining fast confirmations (within a few root-chain blocks) and low QKC fees. Compared with single-chain L1s and many L2s, this design delivers higher effective TPS under load and predictable costs for bridge and DeFi workflows.

QuarkChain Devnet Shard 5 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 5, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select QuarkChain Devnet Shard 5 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 5 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 5 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 5, ensure your wallet is connected to the QuarkChain Devnet Shard 5 network, enter the recipient's address, specify the amount of QKC to send, review the gas fee, and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
