# Chains

This page lists the chains involved in the Zama protocol, their block explorers, RPC endpoints, chain IDs, and LayerZero configurations.

## Mainnet

### Block explorers

* Ethereum: <https://etherscan.io/>
* Gateway: <https://explorer.mainnet.zama.org/>
* BSC: <https://bscscan.com/>
* HyperEVM: <https://hyperevmscan.io/>
* Solana: <https://solscan.io/>

### RPC endpoints

* Gateway: <https://rpc.mainnet.zama.org>

### EVM chains - Chain IDs

Not to be confused with Endpoint IDs (see section below).

| Name       | Chain ID |
| ---------- | -------- |
| `Ethereum` | 1        |
| `Gateway`  | 261131   |
| `BSC`      | 56       |
| `HyperEVM` | 999      |

**Note:** These are only for EVM chains, Solana does not have a chain ID (but has a LayerZero endpoint ID).

### LayerZero

#### Endpoint IDs

Those are LayerZero specific and should not be confused with Chain IDs (see section above).

| Name       | Endpoint ID (eid) |
| ---------- | ----------------- |
| `Ethereum` | 30101             |
| `Gateway`  | 30397             |
| `BSC`      | 30102             |
| `SOL`      | 30168             |
| `HyperEVM` | 30367             |

## Testnet

### Block explorers

* Ethereum Sepolia: <https://sepolia.etherscan.io>
* Gateway Testnet: <https://explorer.testnet.zama.org/>

### RPC endpoints

* Gateway Testnet: <https://rpc.testnet.zama.org>

### EVM chains - Chain IDs

| Name               | Chain ID |
| ------------------ | -------- |
| `Ethereum Sepolia` | 11155111 |
| `Gateway Testnet`  | 10901    |
| `BSC Testnet`      | 97       |

### LayerZero

#### Endpoint IDs

| Name               | Endpoint ID (eid) |
| ------------------ | ----------------- |
| `Ethereum Sepolia` | 40161             |
| `Gateway Testnet`  | 40424             |
| `BSC Testnet`      | 40102             |

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.zama.org/protocol/protocol-apps/chains.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
