Testnet

CLI​

You can access testnet by running the CLI with the testnet flag.

Testnet database files are stored as a sibling file to your mainnet db files with the suffix test.

All ports are one digits longer, prefixed with a 1.

Validating: 13338 & 13339. API: 17292.

Thus, you would access swagger through this link: http://localhost:17292/swagger.

GUI​

You can launch the GUI in testnet mode by appending the --testnet flag through the command line when launching.

MacOS​

On MacOS, use this terminal command to launch into testnet:

/Applications/VFXWallet.app/Contents/MacOS/VFX\ Switchblade --testnet

Windows​

On Windows, use this terminal command to launch into testnet:

"C:\Program Files\VFXWallet\VFXWallet.exe" --testnet

You can also update this in your shortcut's settings by right clicking to edit the properties, then updating the Target to the snippet above.

Addresses​

Please note that all testnet addresses begin with an x instead of an R.

Testnet Explorer: https://spyglass-testnet.verifiedx.io

Testnet Faucet: https://spyglass-testnet.verifiedx.io/faucet

For anything bitcoin related, VerifiedX uses testnet4 due to the 2024 time warp attack that crippled the testnet3 network.
