Public Testnet

Join the Atho Testnet.

The public testnet flow is simple: pull the repo, build the binaries, run the client, create a wallet, let it sync, and start mining when the node is caught up.

Run the Testnet Testnet Funds Contact Atho

Use python runtestnet.py for the current launcher. The Atho client does not include an automated testnet faucet; testnet ATHO is distributed manually by the Atho founders or development team.

How to Join

Install Rust and Python on your system.
Open the current Atho software repository or local checkout.
Run cargo build or cargo build --release.
Run python runtestnet.py.
Create a wallet and wait for sync to complete before mining or sending transactions.

How to Get Testnet ATHO

Create a wallet in the client and copy a testnet address.
Take a screenshot showing the synced client and the wallet.
Email the screenshot and the testnet address to genull@proton.me.
Testnet ATHO is distributed manually for mining and transaction testing.
