An EVM-compatible blockchain testnet for CoinEx Smart Chain (CSC), featuring fast finality, low gas fees, and cett for testing smart contracts and dApps.
CoinEx Smart Chain (CSC) Testnet is a public, EVM‑compatible network that mirrors CSC mainnet and uses CETT as the native gas token, letting teams deploy and iterate on Solidity contracts without financial risk. Typical use cases include dApp and DeFi QA, cross‑chain bridge simulations, tooling/infrastructure testing (MetaMask/Hardhat/Remix), and performance benchmarking. For comparison, CSC Testnet targets fast, low‑cost execution—~3s block time, hundreds TPS under load, and sub‑cent fees at ~1–5 Gwei—versus Ethereum mainnet’s slower blocks and higher fees.
CSC Testnet stands out for predictable, low‑latency finality and ultra‑low fees while retaining full Ethereum tooling compatibility, making it a drop‑in environment for high‑frequency testing and bridge workflows. In practice, you get consistently fast blocks (~3s), competitive throughput (hundreds TPS), and very low gas costs (typical transfers well under $0.01 on mainnet; on testnet funded via faucet), with generally low network activity that minimizes mempool delays. This combination delivers more stable and cost‑efficient testing than congested L1 testnets while remaining EVM‑native for seamless migration to CSC mainnet.
CoinEx Smart Chain Testnet uses cett as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain cett by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge, or through faucets (for testnet).
To bridge cett to CoinEx Smart Chain Testnet, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select CoinEx Smart Chain Testnet as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
