Setting up your Wallet

Last updated 2 years ago

In order to use, earn, or purchase RNDR Tokens, you need to have an ERC-20 compatible wallet that is NOT an exchange wallet (for example do not use a Coinbase Wallet).

We recommend using MetaMask - which can be setup as simply as:

  1. Installing the MetaMask Wallet

  2. Add RNDR as a custom token to your MetaMask

However, any ERC-20 compatible software or hardware wallet, outside of exchange wallets, can be used with the Render Network for sending or receiving tokens.

Installing the MetaMask Wallet

MetaMask is a browser extension which is currently supported by the following browsers: Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Brave.

Installation is simple - just go to metamask.io and follow their installation instructions.

Be extra careful with every click you make here - there is no “undo” button, and if you lose your wallet’s private keys - your coins may be gone forever!

After installation, MetaMask will generate a private key and a recovery passphrase for you. Write this down and store in a safe place. Treat the recovery passphrase (and private key derived from it) as your actual wallet - anyone who knows it owns your money, so never show it to anyone.

If you already had an Ethereum wallet and you have a passphrase or a private key - you can skip the creation of the new one above and just import the one you had.

Add RNDR as a custom token to your MetaMask

To see your RNDR balance on MetaMask's token list in the left-side menu, you must add it as a Custom Token.

To add the token go to etherscan.io and search for RNDR. You can also click on the link https://etherscan.io/token/0x6de037ef9ad2725eb40118bb1702ebb27e4aeb24 to go directly to the page.

Under Profile Summary you click "More" where you see the option to "Add Token to MetaMask (Web3)".

MetaMask asks you to log in an add the suggested token. Click "Add Token" and the RNDR token with your balance will show up in your wallet.

If you prefer, you will find the same functionality on coinmarketcap.com by clicking on the MetaMask icon.

RNDR Token Information

  • Token contract address: 0x6de037ef9ad2725eb40118bb1702ebb27e4aeb24

  • Token Symbol: RNDR

  • Decimals: 18

The same process can be repeated to add RNDR's Layer 2 Polygon contract to MetaMask as well. Simply follow the instructions above and enter in the following token information:

  • Layer 2 Token contract address: 0x61299774020dA444Af134c82fa83E3810b309991

  • Token Symbol: RNDR

  • Decimals: 18

Click "Add Token to Metamask"
Confirm with "Add Token"
Alternatively you can use CoinMarketCap
