This guide is for deploying your own Avalanche L1 and use USDC as native gas token.

The intention is also for the Avalanche L1 to bridge ERC20 and ERC721 using Avalanche Interchain Token Transfer and Chainlink CCIP Transfer Tokens with EVM compatible chains.

It'd be ideal to run it with one command like yarn subnet with a config file, but for now, we'll have to do it manually. You'll start a local Avalanche L1 using Ava Labs avalanche-starter-kit. The network runs on your local machine and can be used for testing and development.

How to run a local Avalanche L1

General avalanche instructions: avalanche -h

0. Start the GitHub codespace

Go to avalanche-starter-kit, open Code, switch to tab Codespaces, then click on + to start a new codespace:

It'll take some time to load, go take a walk or do something else while it loads

1. Create and Start the local blockchain

  1. avalanche blockchain create punksociety

  2. Subnet EVM, "I want to use defaults for a test environment", Chain ID: 615243 Token Symbol: USDC, Enter

  3. avalanche blockchain deploy punksociety

  4. Local Network, Enter

  5. After it boots up the blockchain, for some reason port 9650 doesn't set itself automatically to public, so you gotta click Ports to the right of Terminal, find port 9650, right click it, Port visibility, Public

NOTE: After 30 minutes (or if you close the tab/browser) your codespaces goes to sleep. To prevent this from happening, run this command: while true; do echo "Ah ah ah ah, staying alive!"; sleep 900; done & to ping the codespace every 15 minutes.

NOTE: Remember GitHub will provide users in the free plan (boo!) 120 core hours or 60 hours of run time on a 2 core codespace, plus 15 GB of storage each month. So remember to shut it down when you're not using it.

2. Load RPC URL into your scaffold-eth

Add the rpc url on packages/foundry/.env and on packages/nextjs/.env variable called PUNKSOCIETY_RPC_URL and NEXT_PUBLIC_PUNKSOCIETY_RPC_URL respectively.

Go to packages/nextjs/scaffold.config.ts and change the targetNetworks to [punksociety].

NOTE: When using codespace on github, load the global URL, NOT the local (127.0.0.1) one

3. Import wallets

  1. Go to the frontend and switch networks to PunkSociety, or do it manually if you're inclined to do so. This will prompt you to add Punk Society network to your wallet (only tried on MetaMask so far).

  2. To have 1000000 USDC as starting balance (deployer account), scroll up on the Terminal and find Main funded account EWOQ, then COPY THE PRIVATE KEY (the one NOT starting with 0x).

  3. Copy the private key into packages/foundry/.env variable called DEPLOYER_PRIVATE_KEY prefixing a 0x to it (format is 0xPRIVATE_KEY).

Now you'll be able to deploy contracts to PunkSociety!

  1. Open your metamask and add a new account with that private key.
