An EVM-compatible blockchain testnet (Chain ID 552981) for One World Chain, offering low-cost, fast confirmations to test Solidity smart contracts using OWCT.
One World Chain Testnet is a public EVM-compatible network that mirrors the One World Chain mainnet and uses OWCT as the native gas token, enabling developers to deploy smart contracts and validate cross‑chain bridge flows without risking real funds. Primary use cases include end‑to‑end testing of dApps, wallets, indexers, and bridge contracts (mint/burn/lock/release), plus infrastructure checks across RPCs, explorers, and faucets. As of Sep 2025, the project has not published canonical averages for gas cost, block time, TPS, or on‑chain activity; measure these via the official explorer or your own load tests for accurate comparison.
One World Chain Testnet stands out for a bridge‑first design with OWCT faucet support, Ethereum tooling compatibility (Solidity, Hardhat/Foundry, MetaMask), and predictable, low‑risk validation of cross‑chain transfers and messaging. Unlike generic testnets, it offers a production‑like staging ground for One World Chain bridge integrations while keeping costs negligible and confirmations fast; however, official benchmark metrics (avg gas, block speed, TPS, activity) are not yet published, so comparisons to Sepolia or other EVM testnets should rely on your observed measurements.
One World Chain Testnet uses OWCT as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain OWCT by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge, or through faucets (for testnet).
To bridge OWCT to One World Chain Testnet, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select One World Chain Testnet as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
To build on One World Chain 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 One World Chain 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 OWCT on One World Chain Testnet, ensure your wallet is connected to the One World Chain Testnet network, enter the recipient's address, specify the amount of OWCT to send, review the gas fee, and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
