Title: Re: How to use TestNet Wallet Post by: unamis76 on November 22, 2016, 05:03:11 PM Didn't even knew that there were web wallets for the testnet...
Send them an email, if you weren't credited. Title: Re: How to use TestNet Wallet Post by: SpaceBoy on November 22, 2016, 05:09:11 PM actually blocktrail shows over 30 confirmation for transaction. evan in my wallet transactions are confirmed but balance wallet is still 0.00.
Anyway i'd like to try with offline wallet for testnet, any guide? i' just discover the cryptocurrency 1 week ago. i need testnet to test how to link a bitcoin address to byteball address for the next airdrop ;) Title: Re: How to use TestNet Wallet Post by: unamis76 on November 22, 2016, 05:16:31 PM Download Bitcoin Core and start it (either bitcoind or bitcoin-qt) with the -testnet flag. An alternative is writing testnet=1 on your bitcoin.conf file. Not sure if there's a guide, but this is pretty much it.

Last time I checked it was OK.
If you need a wallet for desktop, I agree with what was said: your best bet (especially if you want to play with testnet a bit more) is Bitcoin-Qt in Testnet mode. There are no decent web wallets. Sync time in Testnet is not that ridiculous. My whole .bitcoin/testnet directory is less than 7GB. Title: Re: How to use TestNet Wallet Post by: CoralPay on November 25, 2016, 08:28:59 PM Just use -testnet flag on core wallet.
Or add testnet=1 in your .conf file. Title: Re: How to use TestNet Wallet Post by: Tasman Beach on November 25, 2016, 08:43:59 PM I'd hate to think people were putting a monetary value on the testnet coins. I thought the whole idea behind the testnet was to diagnose your rig was working before switching to the main block chain? It makes sense that users would test an online wallet (hadn't even thought of that one to be honest) No doubt your coins will turn up once the block chain has downloaded.
Did the coins show as "pending" or "confirming" or something similar? Title: Re: How to use TestNet Wallet Post by: elephant in the room on November 25, 2016, 09:35:38 PM Multibit classic used to have an option in its multibit.properties file to work with the testnet, but I don't know if it's still working.
Hi Binford 6100, To use the testnet, there is an option that you put in the multibit.properties configuration file. I see you are on a Mac, so I recommend doing the following: 1) Duplicate your multibit.app to, say, multibit-testnet.app 2) In Finder, do a right click and 'Show Package Contents'. 3) Navigate to: /Contents/Resources/Java 4) If you put a 'multibit.properties' file in the Java directory that install of multibit (only) will pick it up and use it. It effecively runs in local mode and does not use your user data area. 5) Create in TextPad a file called multibit.properties and save it to the Java directory. 6) In the file add the line: testOrProductionNetwork=test (case sensitive) 7) Then when you open that install of multibit you will connect to the testnet and see something like: http://multibit.org/postImages/testnet.png A couple of things to note: a) I almost never use the testnet so you might run into some gotchas - let me know if you do. b) This is the 'old' testnet (with genesis hash 0000000224b1593e3ff16a0e3b61285bbc393a39f78c8aa48c456142671f7110) There is also a newer testnet3 (with genesis hash 000000000933ea01ad0ee984209779baaec3ced90fa3f408719526f8d77f4943) that currently there is no switch for. If you need this I can add it in - just let me know. You can download the latest classic here. https://multibit.org/releases/multibit-classic/multibit-classic-0.5.19/ edit I couldn't get it to sync, it generated a testnet receive address using a multibit.properties configuration file with testOrProductionNetwork=test written in it. I don't know what it needs besides that to sync.

But never had a problem like this.Pretty sure u mixed smth. Title: Re: How to use TestNet Wallet Post by: Wipro on December 08, 2016, 03:09:23 PM Didn't even knew that there were web wallets for the testnet... i am a newbie. I don't have that much of knowledge in TestNet wallet. Send them an email, if you weren't credited. Title: Re: How to use TestNet Wallet Post by: ArcCsch on December 08, 2016, 03:40:42 PM I'd hate to think people were putting a monetary value on the testnet coins. One way to fix this issue is to specify a maximum block-hight for testnet chains, once the chain runs out, new blocks are no longer valid, and a new chain can start.Nobody would assign a monetary value to something that is scheduled to collapse in a few months.
