Testnet
Carbon testnets allow application developers to test and develop their applications without incurring any real-world cost. It also provides operators intending to run a validator with a risk-free environment to practice installing and running their nodes.
There are several active testnets that run concurrently. The primary Carbon testnet (
carbon-testnet-42069
) should be used for most purposes.Please note that testnets may be reset or deprecated periodically.
Setting up a new node to join a Carbon testnet is quick and easy. The following GitHub repository provides a detailed explanation on how to get started:
Before you can begin developing on Carbon, you'll need to have some testnet Carbon ($SWTH) tokens.
Step 1: Click on the
default POST /
section to expand it: 
Step 2: Once expanded click on the "Try it out" button.

Step 3: In the Edit Value section of the
body
field, change both the address
and coins
parameter of the request to your tswth
address and required token (max 10,000 SWTH 1000000000000swth
).Example:{ "address": "tswth164wzv8ug9g09jhsqhwy9gm04cwplhd6swk3kdv", "coins": [ "10000000000swth" ] }

Step 4: Hit the Execute button.
You should receive testnet tokens at your address momentarily!
