1) Setting up Router's EVM Tesnet

To create cross-chain applications using the Router infrastructure, users will have to build and deploy application contracts on various third-party chains. To simulate an EVM environment for smart contract deployment and interaction, we have created Router's own EVM-compatible Testnet.

To set up Router's EVM Testnet on your MetaMask wallet, you can use two approaches:

Option 1) Add the Network Manually
