Get started
Elysium’s network details, Alchemy’s developer endpoints, the other RPC providers, and the public RPC.
Last updated
Elysium is an Arbitrum Orbit Layer 2 that settles to HyperEVM and uses HYPE as its native gas token. To deploy a contract, see Building on Elysium.

Testnet runs the same stack as mainnet; only the endpoints and deployed addresses differ.
Developer endpoints
Alchemy is the recommended infrastructure provider for building on Elysium. Sign up for a free Alchemy account and create an app on Elysium to get your API key. For historical reads and indexing, use an archive endpoint, available through providers such as Alchemy.

Every user shares the public RPC, so use a provider endpoint for production traffic.
Bridge to Elysium
HYPE bridges from HyperEVM 1:1 as native gas. See Token bridging on Elysium for every route.
