An EVM-compatible testnet (Chain ID 192940) for privacy-preserving data and compute, featuring zero-knowledge access controls and secure off-chain storage for AI and DePIN applications.
Mind Network Testnet is a public, EVM-compatible test environment that uses ETH for gas, letting developers safely deploy and validate apps before mainnet. It’s used to test privacy-preserving dApps, cross-chain bridge flows, data-access controls, and compliance workflows under realistic conditions. As of Sep 2025, the team has not published stable benchmarks for avg gas cost, block speed, TPS, or daily activity; check https://mindnetwork.xyz and its explorer for current figures.
It is unique for its zero‑trust, privacy‑first design that enables encrypted data processing with verifiable access controls, while remaining EVM-compatible and using native ETH to reduce integration friction for bridges and dApps. The network emphasizes interoperability and auditability, making it fit for compliant, cross-chain data use cases rather than only generic throughput. For performance comparison, typical EVM testnets target low fees and sub‑few‑second block times, but Mind Network has not released canonical averages; verify live gas, block speed, TPS, and activity on its explorer before benchmarking against other networks.
Mind Network Testnet uses ETH as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain ETH by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge, or through faucets (for testnet).
To bridge ETH to Mind Network Testnet, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select Mind Network Testnet as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
To build on Mind Network 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 Mind Network 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 ETH on Mind Network Testnet, ensure your wallet is connected to the Mind Network Testnet network, enter the recipient's address, specify the amount of ETH to send, review the gas fee, and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
