This network has been discontinued
Due to the low use of the network by the WPSmartContracts user community, we have decided not to continue maintaining this network (s). This is effective starting with WPSmartContracts version 1.3.6. If you wish, you can use it, but you will need to downgrade the plugin to the 1.3.5 version
