Description

Summary

Re-enable Kusama Hub (Asset Hub) network support in the Polkadot adapter once the official EVM RPC endpoint becomes publicly available.

Background

The Kusama Hub network was temporarily disabled in PR #313 and #314 because the official RPC endpoint DNS (kusama-asset-hub-eth-rpc.polkadot.io) does not resolve as of January 2026.

Chain Details:

What needs to be done

When the Kusama Hub EVM RPC service becomes publicly available:

  1. Verify RPC endpoint - Test that the DNS resolves and the RPC responds correctly:

    curl -X POST https://kusama-asset-hub-eth-rpc.polkadot.io \
      -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
      -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_chainId","params":[],"id":1}'
  2. Uncomment configurations in the following files:

    • packages/adapter-polkadot/src/networks/chains.ts - kusamaHub chain definition
    • packages/adapter-polkadot/src/networks/mainnet.ts - kusamaHubMainnet config
    • packages/adapter-polkadot/src/networks/index.ts - exports
    • packages/adapter-polkadot/src/index.ts - package exports
    • packages/adapter-polkadot/src/wallet/chains.ts - polkadotChains array
  3. Re-enable tests in:

    • packages/adapter-polkadot/src/__tests__/networks.test.ts
    • packages/adapter-polkadot/src/__tests__/adapter.test.ts
