Electroneum is a fast, low cost, and secure smart contract platform built on a unique IBFT consensus protocol. The ultra fast 5 second single block finality, low transaction costs, and high throughput makes Electroneum ideal for real world uses.

Electroneum is a Solidity & Vyper compatible chain and you can easily get started building with tools you’re already familiar with: Remix, Truffle, and MetaMask. 

We’re calling on you to build a working software application that integrates with the Electroneum blockchain! Need tips on how to get started? Check out the documentation here.

Helpful tip: Electroneum supports the EVM and you can deploy your dApps just like on Ethereum.

Please note ANKR have kindly created a referral to allow all users to have FREE access to their Premium Electroneum blockchain API. Visit https://www.ankr.com/rpc/?utm_referral=Electroneum2025 to unlock for 2 months free access.
