How to switch networks#

Use your wallet's network selector or a verified request from the official CenturionDEX interface to switch networks. Always confirm the chain ID before approving because a network name and logo can be copied.

Centurion chain IDs#

  • Centurion mainnet: 286, native CTN.
  • Fornax testnet: 287, native tCTN.
  • Centaurus testnet: 288, native tCTN.

Do not invent or guess an RPC or explorer URL. Obtain the current configuration through official Centurion sources.

Step-by-step from CenturionDEX#

  1. Open the official CenturionDEX interface from a verified Centurion source.
  2. Connect the intended wallet account.
  3. Select the network control in the interface.
  4. Choose Centurion mainnet, Fornax, or Centaurus.
  5. Read the wallet request, including the chain ID and network name.
  6. Approve only when the details match official configuration.
  7. Confirm that the wallet and CenturionDEX now show the same network.
  8. Verify balances and token contracts before starting a transaction.

Step-by-step in a wallet#

  1. Open the wallet's network menu.
  2. Select an existing verified Centurion entry, or choose Add network if none exists.
  3. Enter only the current official network name, chain ID, currency symbol, RPC, and explorer details.
  4. Save the network and select it.
  5. Reopen CenturionDEX and confirm the connection.

Wallet labels vary, so rely on the chain ID and verified endpoint rather than button wording alone.

Why balances change when you switch#

Each blockchain has separate state. Your address may look identical across EVM-compatible networks, but its CTN, tokens, approvals, and transaction history on Centurion are independent of assets elsewhere.

Mainnet CTN is also separate from tCTN on Fornax or Centaurus. Switching a menu does not bridge, copy, or convert assets.

Common issues#

  • The wallet returns to another network: a connected site may be requesting a different chain, or the wallet may not have saved the configuration.
  • Chain ID already exists: inspect the existing entry and remove it if its endpoints are unverified.
  • CenturionDEX still shows wrong network: refresh the interface after switching and reconnect the account.
  • RPC error: verify current official status and configuration rather than trying random public endpoints.
  • No CTN for fees: fund the selected network with its native asset.

Stay safe#

A network-add request can direct your wallet to malicious infrastructure. Verify every field through official Centurion channels. No legitimate setup requires your recovery phrase, private key, or password.
