## **Step 1: Add SKALE to MetaMask**

To begin, you’ll need to configure the SKALE Nebula Gaming Hub network in your MetaMask wallet. Follow these steps:

* **Network Name**: SKALE Nebula Gaming Hub
* **New RPC URL**: <https://mainnet.skalenodes.com/v1/green-giddy-denebola>
* **Chain ID**: 0x585eb4b1
* **Currency Symbol**: sFUEL
* **Block Explorer URL**: <https://green-giddy-denebola.explorer.mainnet.skalenodes.com>

For step-by-step instructions, follow the MetaMask setup guide [here](https://skale.space/blog/how-to-add-skale-chains-to-metamask).The SKALE Network is an open-source, Ethereum-native multichain platform designed to scale Ethereum dApps by offering high throughput, rapid finality, and zero gas fees through its native gas token, sFuel. \
\
[**WORLD3 partnered with SKALE**](https://skale.space/blog/introducing-world3-the-first-ai-powered-btc-autonomous-world-partnering-on-the-gas-free-skale-network) to enhance user experience by leveraging its gas-free architecture, ensuring smooth and cost-effective transactions. A key part of this ecosystem is the **SKALE Nebula Gaming Hub**, a specialized SKALE Chain that supports the rapidly expanding gaming sector. Crystal Caves utilizes this chain to deliver a seamless experience for both Web2 and Web3 players, ensuring frictionless interaction across different platforms. SKALE Chains empower dApps to run scalable, gas-free transactions via sFuel, a zero-cost token that users need to conduct transactions. **It’s 100% free and required for transactions on the SKALE network, including the Crystal Caves Open Beta.**
