An EVM-compatible testnet, PlatON Dev Testnet2 powers privacy-preserving AI and data collaboration with low-cost smart contracts, fast finality, and LAT gas (Chain ID 2206132).
PlatON Dev Testnet2 is a public, EVM‑compatible staging network for PlatON that uses test LAT (lat) to safely deploy, iterate, and audit dApps and cross‑chain bridges before mainnet. It’s used for privacy‑preserving smart contracts, validator/staking flows, oracle and wallet integrations, and bridge message‑passing under realistic conditions with negligible gas costs and fast finality. For benchmarking, developers can track core performance metrics—average gas per tx, block speed, TPS, and live activity—via the testnet explorer during load and CI testing.
PlatON Dev Testnet2 is unique for its native privacy‑preserving compute stack (e.g., MPC/zk) integrated with EVM tooling, enabling confidential smart contracts and data‑secure bridge workflows. Its PPoS+BFT consensus targets deterministic finality in a few seconds with minimal test‑LAT fees, supporting sustained throughput suitable for cross‑chain simulations—typically higher than L1 chains. Unlike generic testnets, it mirrors PlatON mainnet economics and validator behavior while exposing stable RPCs, faucets, and explorers so teams can compare key metrics (avg gas cost, block speed, TPS, and network activity) across environments.
PlatON Dev Testnet2 uses lat as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain lat by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge, or through faucets (for testnet).
To bridge lat to PlatON Dev Testnet2, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select PlatON Dev Testnet2 as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
To build on PlatON Dev Testnet2 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 PlatON Dev Testnet2 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 lat on PlatON Dev Testnet2, ensure your wallet is connected to the PlatON Dev Testnet2 network, enter the recipient's address, specify the amount of lat to send, review the gas fee, and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
