Hi, everyone. This is DunkPay.com.
Some of you will ask questions about the cryptocurrency test and take the time to sort it out.
"I want to ease the test of cryptocurrency transfer, but is it a burden on transaction fee?"
If so, you should at least study a space called "TESTNET".
First, let me show you my Bitcoin. There are over a dozen. I am rich!
But unfortunately this Bitcoin is a fake Bitcoin ㅠ
If you look closely, you can see that there is a flask icon on the front.
Yes, as in the game there is a "test server," as most Cryptocurrency have a "test server."
As you might expect, it works the same in different spaces.
(However, there is a difference between the block size and the transaction fee.)
If so, who provides the coins for "TESTNET"?
Usually there is a service called "FAUCET".
(In some cases, you may be charged when you create a test account like Ripple.)
From now on, I will introduce "TESTNET" and "FAUCET" which are typical Cryptocurrency.
"LIVENET" means a live server.

TESTNET : https://test-insight.bitpay.com/
FAUCET : https://testnet.manu.backend.hamburg/faucet
- BITCOIN CASH
LIVENET : https://bch.blockdozer.com/
TESTNET : https://tbch.blockdozer.com/
FAUCET : https://testnet.manu.backend.hamburg/bitcoin-cash-faucet
- ETHEREUM
LIVENET : https://etherscan.io/
TESTNET : https://ropsten.etherscan.io/
FAUCET : http://faucet.ropsten.be:3001/
In the case of Ethereum, there are three TESTNETs, but the same version as the official server is the "ROPSTER" server.
To connect to a test server, you need a client for the test server
To use "TESTNET" you need a wallet for TESTNET.
- BITCOIN
TESTNET WALLET : https://bitpay.com/wallet
There are various TESTNET wallets as the most popular coin.
However, since the server is operated by BITPAY, I recommend the BITPAY wallet introduced above.
Activate the "TESTNET" option before creating a wallet.
- BITCOIN CASH
TESTNET WALLET : https://ccoin.cash/#wallet
I have not found any apps that support TESTNET yet.
So I usually use my wallet for web.
Go to Settings and enable "TESTNET".
- ETHEREUM
TESTNET WALLET : https://github.com/ethereum/mist/releases
We have not found any apps that support TESTNET yet.
So install the Wallet for the PC provided by the Etherium Foundation.
Go to Settings and enable the "TESTNET - ROPSTEN" option.
The transaction may not be immediately. In this case, block synchronization is required.
With this, you are ready to use "TESTNET".
It will be fun if you charge and exchange it with the people around you.
I do not think anyone would cheat on "TESTNET".
DunkPay.com also offers a "TESTNET" option for BTC / BCH / ETH coins.
Unlimited testing is possible without worrying about fees.
