Mint Sepolia Testnet is Mint Chain’s public EVM test network that mirrors mainnet behavior while using Sepolia ETH as the native gas token. It’s designed for safely deploying and auditing smart contracts, testing cross-chain bridge flows, and integrating wallets/infrastructure with familiar Ethereum tooling (Hardhat, Foundry, MetaMask). Typical use cases include end‑to‑end dApp QA, performance profiling, and transaction-cost estimation with faucet-funded ETH.
Mint Sepolia stands out for mainnet parity (EVM-equivalence, parameters, and bridge contracts), so test results closely match production behavior. It offers seconds-level block times, very low testnet gas costs, and higher throughput than Ethereum L1—suited to load testing and rapid iteration. For apples-to-apples comparisons, consult the Mint explorer for real-time metrics like average gas price, block speed, TPS, and network activity, which are continuously updated.
Mint Sepolia 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 Mint Sepolia Testnet, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select Mint Sepolia Testnet as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
