Practical Tips: Testnet Interactions
Testnet tokens are generally available for free from a “faucet” and are only used to pay Gas fees for test transactions.
Some projects’ testnet tasks come with points or leaderboards. Whether the points can be exchanged for tokens, and at what rate, is usually not announced in advance.
A legitimate testnet faucet will never ask you to hand over your recovery phrase or private key, nor will it ask you to transfer mainnet assets first.
ETH on a testnet is just test currency; it’s not the same as mainnet $ETH . Currently 2501.62.
