Does Fuel networks have a network ID (Like EVM) and will they overlap with existing EVM network IDs?

For example Ethereum mainnet is 1, and Polygon is 137. Would Fuel networks respect these chain IDs, for example would fuel Mainnet be network id 1, or would it be a non-conflicting chainId?

Fuel networks would likely use a non-conflicting chainId. Ethereum’s mainnet chainId is 1, and Polygon’s is 137, but these identifiers are specific to EVM-compatible networks. Since Fuel uses its own execution layer and is not strictly an EVM chain, it would make sense for Fuel to define its own unique chainId that doesn’t conflict with existing ones. This ensures proper identification and avoids issues when interacting with other networks or wallets.
