Connect to Core Testnet

PreviousConnect to Core MainnetNext$OG

Last updated 1 year ago

In this guide, we'll connect to Core Testnet and get funded with tCORE from Core's Testnet Faucet. For more information about connecting to Core Mainnet, refer to .

MetaMask Wallet Setup

We recommend using the MetaMask web wallet to connect to Core Testnet. You'll need to install MetaMask and set up your account before you can use it to connect to Core Testnet. You can find MetaMask setup instructions .

Adding Core Testnet to MetaMask

Once you've set up your MetaMask wallet, you can use it to connect to Core Testnet by adding Core Testnet's chain details in MetaMask's network settings. To do so, navigate to Settings->Networks in MetaMask and click the Add Network button. Input the following information:

  • Network Name: Core Chain TestNet

  • New RPC URL:

  • Chain ID: 1115

  • Currency Symbol: tCORE

  • Block Explorer URL:

Rebrand Updates

Satoshi Chain/BTCs have been rebranded to Core Chain/CORE, respectively. If you added the Testnet before the rebranding, you'll need to update Network Name and Currency Symbol in the MetaMask settings manually; otherwise, you won't be able to use the current version of Core Testnet. Go to Settings->Network, and select Core Testnet to open up the network settings. Update Network Name and Currency Symbol to the values stated in the above sections and click the Save button. You're good to go!

Testnet Facuet: tCORE Account Funding

tCORE is only used for testing and does not have any value. Do not use it for real financial transactions.

After requesting tCORE from the faucet, you'll see your MetaMask balance increase.

Sending tCORE

You can use MetaMask to send tCORE to other addresses, as seen below:

  2. The one in which we sent tCORE to another address;

If you using the Chrome MetaMask extension, you can use a quick shortcut to add Core Testnet to Metamask. Visit , scroll down to the bottom, and select the Add Core Network button. This will open a pop-up with all necessary network information loaded - you just need to confirm and approve.

To help users get started and allow developers to quickly prototype their Dapps, Core has released the public to distribute tCORE. Simply navigate to the faucet and fill in your Core Testnet address, complete the CAPTCHA, and click the Get tCORE button. Each address can request one tCORE per day. If you've run out of tCORE and the faucet won't send you more because of the one tCORE daily limit, come back tomorrow and try again!

You can use the to find and review transactions. Copy your account's address from MetaMask and search for it on the explorer. In the picture below, we can see two transactions related to our account:
