## Testnet Ocean Tokens
There are Ocean Tokens in several testnets, including the Kovan testnet and Nile testnet. They are just testnet Ocean Tokens (i.e. for testing purposes only) and they aren't interchangeable with Mainnet Ocean Tokens. For more details (including token contract addresses), see the the [page about Testnets](/concepts/testnets/).

## Mainnet Ocean Tokens
The initial circulating supply of Mainnet Ocean Tokens will first become available on the Ethereum mainnet (_not_ the Ocean mainnet).
**NOTICE: Below we outline the plans for Mainnet Ocean Tokens at the time of writing. Those plans might change. We try to keep this page up-to-date but there may be some delay.**
**Ethereum Mainnet Token Contract Address:** To be determined
The initial circulating supply of Mainnet Ocean Tokens will first become available on the Ethereum Mainnet (_not_ the Ocean Mainnet).
If you acquired Ocean Tokens in the initial circulating supply, they will be sent to the address you provided. We will write about the timing and other details elsewhere.

In the future, the Ocean mainnet will be launched and later it will become possible to move Ocean Tokens from the Ethereum mainnet to the Ocean mainnet. We will write about the timing and other details elsewhere.

At the time of writing, there were some public testnets you could use to test an Ocean Protocol application. For more information about those, see the page about [testnets](/concepts/testnets/).
Note: This page _doesn't_ explain how to get Ether or Ocean Tokens for use in the Ocean mainnet.
## Get a Compatible Wallet
You will need a [wallet that can hold Ether (for any Ethereum network) and Ocean Tokens (for any Ethereum network)](/concepts/wallets/). For the purpose of this tutorial, you can use MetaMask. See [our tutorial about how to set up MetaMask](/tutorials/metamask-setup/).
