# Tokens

To use HOPR, you'll need two types of token:

- a HOPR token
- the native token of the blockchain the HOPR token is linked to

The HOPR testnet is currently running on xDAI Chain, a sidechain of Ethereum, so the native token is xDAI. The HOPR token for the testnet is xHOPR.

After mainnet launch, the native token will be gETH and the HOPR token will simply be HOPR. However, for our various testnets HOPR will be running on a variety of different chains.
