Welcome to this comprehensive article that will walk you through deploying a smart contract on the Linea mainnet. Following our guide will give you the knowledge necessary to create transactions on the Linea mainnet, positioning yourself for potential participation in the upcoming Linea airdrop. Prepare to embark on a journey towards maximizing your opportunities in the Linea ecosystem.

So here is how to deploy a smart contract on Linea mainnet:

• First, go to Remix 👇🏻

Remix is a toolset for developing, deploying, debugging, and testing Ethereum and EVM-compatible smart contracts.

• Click on “Create” and set a name for your contract. Eg. Linea Token

Now copy the full codes from this file: Download

And paste it into Remix 👇

Head over to the “Solidity compiler” tab and hit on “Compile” 👇🏻

If there is no error, you will see a green check mark 👇🏻

Now it's time to deploy the contract. But before doing so, ensure that you have selected the Linea mainnet chain on your Metamask. Additionally, make sure you have at least 0.006 ETH in your account as we will need it for the gas fee.

You can bridge ETH from other chains to Linea using RhinoFi, LayerSwap, Orbiter etc.

Now go to the “Deploy page” > Choose “Injected Provider” on ENVIRONMENT and click on “Deploy 👇🏻

And confirm the transaction on Metamask.

Once the transaction is successful, you’ll see your deployed contract like this 👇🏻

Now let's proceed with one more transaction by minting some tokens from our contract.

1. Expand the contract that you just deployed.

2. Expand the “Mint” option

3. Enter any quantity, eg. 1000.

4. Hit the “Transact” button and approve the transaction on Metamask.

Congratulations!!! 🎉🚀 You have successfully deployed a smart contract on the Linea mainnet and minted tokens from the contract. By completing two transactions using the Linea mainnet, you've taken your first steps towards becoming a Linea veteran.

As we conclude this tutorial guide, we encourage you to stay tuned for future updates and the launch of new protocols on the Linea mainnet. By exploring and interacting with more unique contracts, you can further enhance your skills and increase your chances of qualifying for the Linea airdrop.
