Get Testnet ALPHA

After setting up your wallet, you can request testnet ALPHA and fungible tokens from the testnet faucet in the Alphabill Discord server. For each request, the faucet transfers 100 ALPHA and 100 fungible tokens (TEST-FT) to the given address, with a default limit of 5 requests per day per address.

  1. Go to the alphabill-wallet/build directory, run the following command to list your wallet's public keys, and copy the public key where you want the faucet to send testnet assets:

    ./abwallet wallet get-pubkeys
    Example response:
    #1 0x038542f9185b52160ea78894fb3055287584cc901a28248a5a3d1095722986c9c2
    #2 0x03ddeb805aba6bb56b5f6351d51f44d11a374070032f95be5841e9b6420099a00a
  2. If you haven't joined the Alphabill Discord server yet, join now using the invite link: https://discord.com/invite/dcFURChe86

    Open the #testnet-faucet channel and paste your public key into the chat window:

  3. Once the faucet bot has confirmed your request, check your wallet to verify you have received 100 ALPHA and 100 TEST-FT tokens:

    • Check your wallet balance:

      ./abwallet wallet get-balance \
      --rpc-url https://money-partition.testnet.alphabill.org
      Example response:
      #1 100.000'000'00
      #2 0.000'000'00
      Total 100.000'000'00
    • List tokens in your wallet:

      ./abwallet wallet token list \
      --rpc-url https://tokens-partition.testnet.alphabill.org
      Example response:
