Now that you have created a MetaMask wallet, you can connect to the caduceus blockchain. There are two networks you can connect to. 

- Mainnet
  - This is the real Caduceus blockchain where real money is stored. 
- Testnet
  - Tokens on this blockchain have no value and are used purely for test purposes.
