I am deploying a contract on the testnet with hardhat, but the address returned is not the real address the contract is at in the blockchain.

I am following hardhat's guide.

Code:

async function main() {
  const TokenContract = await ethers.getContractFactory("Token");
  const token = await TokenContract.deploy();
  await token.deployed();

  console.log("Token deployed to:", token.address);
}

Token deployed to: 0x684c903c66D69777377f0945052160C9f778d689

At that address, though, I see a contract that is not mine! If I look into my wallet's transaction in the explorer I can find the contract creation transaction and the real contract, here:: real address

How come?

  • Why do you think your deployed contract is the address you are showing on the screenshot? can you give more detail?

  • @JulissaDC I just checked the transactions of my address and saw that there was one about a contract generation. I followed it and I saw that that one was the generated contract. It corresponds with what I deployed. Commented Dec 25, 2021 at 15:51
