An EVM-compatible blockchain testnet for LUKSO, featuring Universal Profiles and native account abstraction via LSP standards for digital lifestyle and creator economies, using LYXt.
LUKSO Testnet is LUKSO’s public EVM-compatible network that uses LYXt for gas and mirrors mainnet features for safe prototyping. It’s used to build and test Universal Profiles (ERC725/LSP3), LSP6 Key Manager permissions, LSP7/8 token and NFT standards, social recovery, dApps, and bridge integrations. Typical performance is Ethereum-like: ~12 s blocks, ~10–15 TPS, median gas ≈1–3 gwei (simple transfer ~21k gas ≈0.000021–0.000063 LYXt), with lower activity than mainnets for fast, predictable confirmations.
LUKSO Testnet is unique for its smart-account–first design via Universal Profiles and the LSP standard suite, providing native permissions, programmable ownership, rich metadata, social recovery, and meta-transaction patterns without custom account-abstraction stacks. It remains fully EVM-compatible for tooling parity, while offering consistently low testnet gas (≈1–3 gwei) and steady ~12 s blocks (~10–15 TPS), so compared to other testnets you get mainnet-like behavior with quicker confirmations due to lower network activity.
LUKSO Testnet uses LYXt as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain LYXt by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge, or through faucets (for testnet).
To bridge LYXt to LUKSO Testnet, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select LUKSO Testnet as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
To build on LUKSO Testnet you can use thirdweb, which provides an easy way to build, monetize and scale your apps, games or agents. You can find detailed guides and documentation on https://portal.thirdweb.com to get started quickly.
To add LUKSO Testnet to your wallet, you can connect your wallet and click on [Add to Wallet] button at the top of the page. Alternatively, you can add the network manually using the RPC URL and chain details and add it to your wallet's network settings.
To send LYXt on LUKSO Testnet, ensure your wallet is connected to the LUKSO Testnet network, enter the recipient's address, specify the amount of LYXt to send, review the gas fee, and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
