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.
