Testnets

The "current" testnet is located here: https://testnet.giraffechain.com

Running block production on phones is a rather amibitious goal. I'm not entirely sure if it'll work in the real world. To find out, I need your help.

Running a global/public graph database on top of a blockchain is also a rather ambitious goal. I need your help to push its use-cases.

Because this chain is still in development, it is extremely likely that a public testnet will need to be reset in order to implement backwards-incompatible changes.

My goal is to make it as easy as possible to use the testnets. Some tokens are freely available in the "public" wallet. Otherwise, check out the faucet docs.

Open the Wallet/App to see the current state of the chain, access your funds, stake, and more.

If you want to help with relay operations, you can do so using Docker.

1. docker volume create giraffe
2. docker run -d --name giraffe --restart=always -p 2023:2023 -p 2024:2024 -v giraffe:/giraffe giraffechain/node:dev --genesis https://github.com/GiraffeChain/giraffe/raw/genesis/testnet4/b_4yXEL2yU13XyRu2S1pbZ9ZUys9aDaV8tKmh6Z5WL6eaQ.pbuf --peer testnet.giraffechain.com:2023
   • Note: If you are able to open your firewall for public access on port 2023, you can add the --p2p-public-host auto argument
