Mastering the ability to change the network for a connected dApp within your Temple Wallet is a crucial step toward leveraging its full potential as a versatile multichain wallet. As Temple Wallet now seamlessly supports both its native Tezos blockchain and various EVM-compatible chains like Ethereum (ETH), Binance Smart Chain (BSC), and Etherlink (XTZ), the capability to switch networks directly within the wallet interface is essential for interacting with a vast ecosystem of decentralized applications (dApps).
This guide has outlined the straightforward process required to change the active network for any dApp currently connected to your Temple Wallet extension. By simply accessing the wallet, navigating to the Manage Connections section, clicking on the current network displayed for the specific dApp, and selecting your desired network (for example, switching from Ethereum to BSC Mainnet or vice-versa) from the dropdown menu, you ensure correct blockchain interaction.
Successfully switching the network within Temple Wallet for a connected dApp prevents compatibility issues and ensures your transactions are processed on the intended blockchain. This flexibility is key to exploring diverse Web3 opportunities, whether engaging with DeFi protocols on BSC, interacting with NFT marketplaces on Ethereum, or utilizing services on the Tezos network, all managed conveniently through your Temple Wallet.
Remember always to verify that the network has successfully updated within the dApp interface after making the change in your Temple Wallet.
