Hello there, here is a tutorial for setting up Argent X.

Firstly, go to the link below and download the extension.

After you download the extension, it will pop up a new tab.

Click on the ‘Create a new wallet’ button.

Tick the boxes and click the ‘Continue’ button.

Set your password and continue.

Remember to note your seed phrase.

With Argent X, you can use both Starknet Mainnet and Testnet networks. Now I will show you how you can buy ETH on the testnet.

First, get Goerli ETH on your Metamask wallet. You can do it via the websites below:

https://faucet.quicknode.com/ethereum/goerli
https://goerlifaucet.com/
https://goerli-faucet.pk910.de/ (This is a PoW faucet)
https://www.allthatnode.com/faucet/ethereum.dsrv

After you get Goerli ETH, you need to bridge that to Starknet Testnet.

Go to Starkgate Alpha and connect both your Argent X and Metamask wallets.

Determinate the amount and click the ‘Transfer’ button and confirm the tx on your Metamask pop-up. Bridge can take 3–4 min.

You’re all done. Now, you can make any testnet you want in Starknet.
