Can I Add Bittensor to MetaMask?

Yes, you can add Bittensor to MetaMask using Subtensor EVM, an Ethereum-compatible layer built into Bittensor’s blockchain. Subtensor EVM lets you deploy Ethereum smart contracts directly on Bittensor without altering their code, with execution entirely within the Bittensor network.

After entering Subtensor’s RPC details into MetaMask, you can manage TAO tokens, interact with specialized AI-driven decentralized apps, and handle Ethereum-compatible transactions directly through your wallet.

How to Add Bittensor's Subtensor EVM to MetaMask

The simplest way to connect Subtensor EVM (Bittensor’s Ethereum-compatible blockchain) to MetaMask is through ChainList, a trusted aggregator for verified Chain ID & RPC settings.

To connect to Bittensor’s EVM, follow these 4 simple steps:

1. Visit ChainList: Head over to the ChainList website and connect your MetaMask wallet.
2. Search Subtensor: Type "Subtensor EVM" into the search bar.
3. Add Network: Click "Add to MetaMask" beside Subtensor EVM.
4. Confirm Connection: Approve the prompt within MetaMask to finalize the integration.

Subtensor EVM RPC and Chain ID

To manually connect Subtensor EVM to MetaMask without using aggregators like ChainList, use these network details:

• Network Name: Subtensor EVM Testnet
• RPC URL: https://test.chain.opentensor.ai
• Chain ID: 945
• Currency Symbol: TAO
• Block Explorer: https://taostats.io/subnets

Always confirm these settings with official Subtensor EVM documentation to ensure accuracy.

About Bittensor and Subtensor EVM

Bittensor is a blockchain explicitly built for decentralized artificial intelligence. It consists of distinct marketplaces, called subnets, where participants compete to deliver specialized AI services. Miners perform tasks like language processing or data storage, while validators evaluate their results. Both groups earn TAO tokens based on their effectiveness, incentivizing ongoing improvement.

Subtensor EVM adds Ethereum compatibility directly into the Bittensor blockchain, allowing developers to deploy Ethereum smart contracts unchanged. These contracts execute exclusively within Subtensor, combining Ethereum’s proven smart-contract functionality with Bittensor’s AI-centric infrastructure.

Final Thoughts

Adding Bittensor to MetaMask via Subtensor EVM simplifies access to decentralized AI applications. Using Ethereum-compatible tools, you can securely manage TAO tokens, deploy smart contracts, and seamlessly participate in Bittensor’s unique AI ecosystem. 

Always verify your connection details through official sources or ChainList to stay secure.
