Lens Network Sepolia Testnet is the public EVM-compatible testnet for the Lens Network, a zk-powered social appchain where GRASS is the native gas token. It lets developers validate Lens-native social primitives (profiles, publications, follows, Open Actions), account abstraction flows (gasless/sponsored via paymasters), and cross-chain integrations before mainnet. Key performance notes: average gas cost is faucet-funded (effectively near-zero), block speed is in the low-seconds range, and TPS is bursty based on sequencer load—suitable for high-activity social use cases.
Lens Network Sepolia Testnet is unique because it is purpose-built for decentralized social: social objects and Open Actions are first-class protocol features with ready-to-query indexing, reducing integration time versus generic EVM testnets. Its zk-rollup architecture with account abstraction enables very low fees and fast finality for interaction-heavy UX, and it uses GRASS for gas on testnet to simplify developer testing. For comparison, generic testnets optimize for raw token-transfer TPS, while Lens focuses on social activity throughput; exact averages for gas cost, block speed, and TPS on Sepolia Testnet are variable and not yet officially standardized.
Lens Network Sepolia Testnet uses GRASS as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain GRASS by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge, or through faucets (for testnet).
To bridge GRASS to Lens Network Sepolia Testnet, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select Lens Network Sepolia Testnet as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
