DOCS / USE SATURN / 04
Connect a wallet
Saturn speaks standard Solana JSON-RPC, so connecting is not a migration — it's a settings change. One endpoint and you're in.
The endpoint
https://rpc.saturn.cxFrom a wallet
Any Solana wallet that lets you set a custom RPC endpoint can talk to Saturn:
- Open your wallet's network settings (often under Developer Settings or Change Network).
- Add a custom RPC and paste
https://rpc.saturn.cx. - Switch to it. Your existing address works as-is — keys are the same curve, the same format.
From the Solana CLI
solana config set --url https://rpc.saturn.cx

solana balanceFrom code
import { Connection } from "@solana/web3.js";
const saturn = new Connection("https://rpc.saturn.cx", "confirmed");
console.log("slot", await saturn.getSlot());Your first SATURN
Fees cost 5,000 lamports per signature, so you need a little SATURN before anything else. On mainnet there is exactly one source: bridging in from Solana. Use the bridge directly in this site — deposits are credited automatically, usually within a minute. The mechanics are in bridge in.
Verify you're live
Check your address in the Saturn Explorer — balance, token accounts, and history come straight from the node you just connected to.
