Wallet Setup & Faucet

Step 1: Setup your wallet

I use Eternl which you can get here:

https://eternl.io/

Before you create a wallet, switch to the "Pre-prod" network. You do this by clicking this button at the bottom right of the wallet app:

You'll then be shown this popup:

Select "Pre-production Testnet" and then click on "Add Wallet" to begin:

Follow the process carefully, and immediately note down your password, and your secret keys. Once you're done you'll be able to go to the "Receive" tab to copy your wallet address to clipboard for the next step.

Step 2 - Get some funds into your wallet

Before you can test our platform you'll need some test ADA. The faucet below will currently give you 10,000 ADA. Paste your wallet address into the form and you should receive those test funds in less than a minute:
