# Quick Start

## Step 1: Set Up the Wallet

Install the [MetaMask extension](https://metamask.io/download/).

## Step 2: Add the CoopHive Testnet Network

1. Open the MetaMask extension
2. Click on the network button dropdown at the upper left corner of the extension
3. Choose "Add Network" at the bottom
4. Choose "Add a network manually", which is located below all of the default options
5. Enter the CoopHive Testnet details below, then click save

```
Network name: CoopHive v0 testnet
New RPC URL: http://halcyon.co-ophive.network:8545
Chain ID: 1337
Currency symbol: ETH
Block explorer URL: (leave blank)
```

## Step 3: Fund Your Wallet

Go to [the faucet](http://halcyon-faucet.co-ophive.network:8085) to get ETH and HIVE using the same address you connected with in Step 1.

## Step 4: Add Private Key to Environment

For example,

<pre class="language-bash"><code class="lang-bash"><strong>export WEB3_PRIVATE_KEY=&#x3C;your private key>
</strong></code></pre>

Alternatively, arrange for the key to be in your environment in a way that doesn't get written to your shell history.

## Step 5: Hello World

1. Run the following command:

```bash
hive run cowsay:v0.0.1 -i Message="hello world"
```

2. Wait for the job to be submitted to the solver, the solver to return a match, the deal to be agreed upon, the job to run, and for the results to be returned.
