FAQ & troubleshooting

Is mainnet live?

Yes. Mainnet is live (chain id qorechain-vladi). The testnet preset (qorechain-diana) also remains available. Both presets ship localhost endpoint defaults; select the network with createClient({ network: "mainnet" }) and override endpoints with your node URLs. See Network & endpoints.

Why do my calls hit localhost?

createClient() defaults to localhost endpoints. To talk to a real node, pass an endpoints object:

const client = createClient({
endpoints: {
rest: "https://api-testnet.qore.host",
rpc: "https://rpc-testnet.qore.host",
evmRpc: "https://evm-testnet.qore.host",
},
});

The signing path (connectTx) needs the consensus rpc endpoint; CosmWasm reads also use it. REST reads use rest; EVM and qor_ calls use evmRpc.

"Cannot find module 'viem'" / "'@solana/web3.js'"

These are peer dependencies of @qorechain/evm and @qorechain/svm respectively. Install them in your project:

npm i @qorechain/evm viem
npm i @qorechain/svm @solana/web3.js

A precompile call throws "feature not present"

The EVM precompiles exist only on nodes running the QoreChain EVM Engine. On a plain EVM node those calls fail. If you target heterogeneous nodes, wrap each precompile call and handle the error per-call.

My amounts are off by a factor of a million

QOR has 10^6 base uqor units. Use toBase / fromBase and do all math in base units:

toBase("1.5"); // "1500000"
fromBase("1500000"); // "1.5"

Note the EVM runtime represents QOR with 18 decimals (EVM convention), which is distinct from the Native uqor base of 10^6.

Which packages are published, and where?

All of them. The TypeScript core (@qorechain/sdk), the EVM/SVM adapters (@qorechain/evm, @qorechain/svm), the React kit (@qorechain/react), and the create-qorechain-dapp scaffolder are on npm at 0.7.0; the Python client is on PyPI (pip install qorechain-sdk at 0.7.0, import qorsdk); the Go client is on the module proxy (go get github.com/qorechain/qorechain-sdk/packages/go/..., tag packages/go/v0.7.0); and the Java client is on Maven Central (io.github.qorechain:qorechain-sdk:0.7.0). The Rust client is on crates.io (cargo add qorechain-sdk) at the latest published crate version, which currently lags 0.7.0 — install from crates.io or from the repo. See Install for the full per-language commands.

My mnemonic is rejected

The SDK validates both the BIP-39 wordlist and the checksum before deriving any key, so a typo'd phrase raises instead of silently producing the wrong account. Re-check the words; use validateMnemonic to test a phrase.

Hybrid (PQC) transactions

Hybrid (classical + ML-DSA-87) submission is live and required on the Native path — classical-only Native transactions are rejected on-chain (chain v3.1.85). Before a hybrid tx PQC-verifies, the signer's PQC public key must be registered (MsgRegisterPQCKeyV2), or you can set includePqcPublicKey: true to embed it for auto-registration on first use. The chain accepts only deterministic ML-DSA-87 signatures (the SDK signs deterministically by default since 0.5.1); hedged signatures fail with pqc code 21 (hybrid_verify_failed). See Accounts & PQC signing.

My hybrid transactions fail at CheckTx with a tx parse error

Upgrade the SDK. Versions 0.6.0 and earlier JSON-serialized the /qorechain.pqc.v1.PQCHybridSignature tx-body extension, which the chain's tx decoder rejects at CheckTx. Since 0.6.1 the extension is protobuf-encoded (the value begins with 0x08) in all five languages — hybrid transactions built with older versions are rejected on-chain, in every lane (including eth-native).

My authenticator spend is rejected with authenticator_replay

The nonce is wrong. MsgExecuteEVM.nonce must be the account's current EVM nonce (the relayer is a different account, so do not add 1); MsgExecuteCosmos.nonce is the per-authenticator sequence for (account, pubkey), a separate store counter. Refetch the value and re-sign. Other authenticator failures decode via decodeTxError: abstractaccount codes 5 (spending_limit_exceeded), 6 (session_key_expired), and 10 (permission_denied). See Authenticators & delegated spending.
