I mined multiple whole Bitcoins using
nullama's guide by now, and am about to start the rig back up, after some infrastructure changes.
Therefore, anyone who needs a certain
(potentially large) amount of Testnet BTC, do feel free to post a request in here and I will lend them out as long as I feel your explanation / reason for needing that amount makes sense.
This is intended for development / testing use. In my personal experience, it can make sense to test the Bitcoin software you are developing one last time in a 'almost mainnet' configuration, e.g. being able to interact with it from a popular wallet, hardware wallet, and so on, which don't have a signet option, for instance.
I strongly agree with the popular opinion that you
should be able to test everything with even very small amounts, but I'm deliberately choosing
not to set a hard cap, and will decide on a case-by-case basis.
Address (also for returns):
tb1qm068f6x09x2tyswpatvmen25kz2g6f7zexc9gvCurrent balance: 8.98512319 tBTC
I think it goes without saying that the funds are meant to be returned after use, as is usual in every other faucet..
If you're a Newbie user or I otherwise suspect of not getting the coins (minus fees / whatever got lost in experimentation, say up to 10% loss) back, I may ask for a collateral in BTC or deny access to my faucet.
Please post your request as follows:
Amount: <Value in BTC>
Address: <Your Address>
