### Lucent Network Mainnet is <mark style="color:green;">now live</mark>:

We are delighted to inform you that the **Lucent Mainnet** has been successfully deployed and has passed all tests. The network is now fully operational and ready for use.\
\
**Lucent Network Mainnet details**:\
\
Here are the network access details:\
🔗 1. RPC  \
<https://rpc.lucent.network/rpc>

🔁 2. Bridge\
<https://bridge.lucent.network>

🔍 3. Explorer\

#### Set Up RPC through Terminal (Lucent Network Testnet)

This guide will help you configure your development environment's RPC connection.\
\
Run the following command to set the RPC URL to Lucent Network Testnet:

```html
solana config set --url https://rpc.testnet.lucent.network/rpc 
```

Or SOON Faucet Devnet(easy to get test tokens):

```bash
solana config set --url https://rpc.fc.devnet.soo.network/rpc
```

#### Verify Configuration

Run the following command to verify your setup:

```bash
solana config get
```

You should see output similar to:

```
Config File: /home/xxxx
RPC URL: https://rpc.testnet.lucent.network/rpc 
WebSocket URL: wss://rpc.testnet.soo.network/rpc (computed)
Keypair Path: /home/xxxxx
Commitment: confirmed
```

### Solana Playground Configuration

If you're using Solana Playground for development, follow these steps to configure RPC:

1. Click the settings button on the left
2. Select "Custom" in the Endpoint settings
3. Enter Soon's RPC URL:&#x20;

   ```
   https://rpc.testnet.soo.network/rpc
   ```

   or&#x20;

   ```
   https://rpc.fc.devnet.soo.network/rpc  
   ```

&#x20; （# Recommended: easier to obtain test tokens）

### Important Notes

1. **Development Phase**:
   * Lucent is currently in Testnet, and is set to release its mainnet in May 2025
2. **Network Selection**:
   * SOON Faucet Devnet recommended for development
   * Easier access to test tokens for development

### Common Issues

1. **Connection Failures**:
   * Ensure a stable network connection
   * Verify the correct RPC URL input
   * Check firewall settings
2. **Config File Location**:
   * Linux/MacOS: `~/.config/solana/cli/config.yml`
   * Windows: `C:\Users\<USERNAME>\.config\solana\cli\config.yml`
