Quick start

Four ways into the test network, from a minute in the browser to a node of your own. Test coins have no value; nothing here needs real money.

1. Get an address (1 minute)

Open the Web Wallet, create a wallet and write down the 24-word recovery phrase. Your address starts with trq1. Coins arrive from the faucet, a miner or another wallet.

Prefer the command line? Download requant-wallet from the latest release and run:

requant-wallet create my.wallet        # asks a passphrase, shows the phrase once and your address
requant-wallet address my.wallet       # the address and its key hash (the miner's --payee)

2. Get test coins

  • Faucet. The faucet sends 10 RQT to a test-network address once a day.
  • Mine. Every pool payout and every block reward lands on your address.

3. Mine with an NVIDIA GPU (10 minutes)

Requirements: an NVIDIA GPU of the Turing generation or newer (RTX 20 series, CMP 30HX–90HX, RTX 30/40/50 series) and a current driver.

  1. Download CPPminer for Windows or Linux from its latest release and check the archive against SHA256SUMS.txt.
  2. Check the GPU: cppminer --algo tnet --selftest.
  3. Mine in the public pool with your key hash:
cppminer --algo tnet --rpc 193.187.93.29:19340 --payee YOUR_KEY_HASH --worker rig1

Follow your device on the pool page. Balances are paid automatically from 1 RQT once the blocks are 100 blocks deep. See mining and the pool.

4. Run a node (15 minutes)

Download requantd for Linux or Windows from the latest release and start it on the test network:

requantd --network test --datadir ~/requant-test --auto-update \
  --connect 193.187.93.29:19333 \
  --connect 193.32.188.248:19333 \
  --connect 185.174.40.96:19333

The node syncs headers first, then blocks, verifying every work claim. It needs about 1 GiB of disk and page cache for the epoch weights. See run a node.
