Generating a raw hexadecimal key |
Using hexadecimal keys is the easiest and fastest way to configure Hyperlane agents.

{% tabs %} {% tab title="Cast CLI" %} Using Foundry's cast, you can create a new key pair:
{% code overflow="wrap" %}
cast wallet new{% endcode %}
The output will look something like this:
{% code overflow="wrap" %}
Successfully created new keypair.

{% tab title="Using privatekeys.pw" %} You can visit https://privatekeys.pw/keys/ethereum/random, which will automatically display a list of hexadecimal private keys and their addresses.
{% hint style="warning" %} Please note that because these are generated by a website, these private keys should be considered insecure and should not be used for anything other than testing purposes! {% endhint %} {% endtab %} {% endtabs %}
