Is Qitmeer compatible with the Ethereum ecosystem ?

Qitmeer's QNG network features an EVM-compatible smart contract layer that employs the same Virtual Machine (EVM) as Ethereum. Consequently, smart contracts running on Ethereum can also function on the QNG network. This means Qitmeer supports Ethereum-supported coding languages, including Solidity, Vyper, and more.

Additionally, Qitmeer integrates Ethereum's JSON RPC, making it compatible with tools utilizing JSON RPC, such as web3.js, MetaMask, Remix, Truffle, among others.

In general, any DApp running on Ethereum can run on Qitmeer with minimal or negligible modifications.

How can I deploy smart contracts on Qitmeer ?

The process of deploying smart contracts on Qitmeer is akin to deploying them on Ethereum. Most people use Remix, but other tools are also viable. Please refer to our tutorial on creating token contracts.

Can I stake Qitmeer Network's native asset, Meer Coin ?

As Qitmeer Network's native currency Meer Coin operates on a Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism, unlike blockchain projects with PoS consensus and zero-cost issuance, each Meer Coin embodies electricity costs and computational resources. There isn't a staking reward mechanism.

Is Qitmeer Network suitable for DApp development ?

Absolutely. We encourage DApp developers to leverage EVM compatibility and swiftly migrate to Qitmeer, benefiting from its high performance and the enhanced experience offered by lower transaction fees.

You can start by obtaining testnet tokens from the faucet. Additionally, Qitmeer has established a series of ecosystem support measures. If you encounter any issues, please actively reach out to the official channels!

What are the Gas fees on Qitmeer Network's QNG network ?

Gas fees refer to the computational resources required to execute code programs in the EVM-compatible QNG network of Qitmeer. It's akin to the "fuel" required to drive a car in real life. Every code execution on the chain consumes a certain amount of Gas, dependent on factors like the complexity of operations and network congestion levels.
