A PoW UTXO BlockDAG testnet using Qitmeer’s MeerDAG consensus, providing fast, scalable confirmations and robust security for MEER-T-based application development and network research.
Qitmeer Network Testnet is the public sandbox for Qitmeer’s PoW BlockDAG Layer‑1 (MeerDAG) and its EVM‑compatible execution (MeerEVM), using MEER‑T for fees and testing. It is used to trial cross‑chain bridge flows, deploy and benchmark Solidity dApps, validate UTXO‑based asset issuance/transfers, and integrate wallets/miners/explorers; metrics are tuned for experimentation: byte‑based L1 fees and low‑gwei gas on MeerEVM, fast DAG confirmations, and scalable TPS visible on public explorers/faucets.
Qitmeer is unique in combining a Nakamoto‑secure PoW BlockDAG (MeerDAG) with an EVM layer, enabling fast confirmations, parallel throughput, and predictable low fees. Compared with linear‑chain PoW/EVM testnets, its DAG design raises effective block rate and TPS and reduces orphaning/miner unfairness; the testnet openly tunes parameters, so live metrics (avg gas, block speed, TPS, activity) are observable via explorers and may change between runs.
Qitmeer Network Testnet uses MEER-T as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain MEER-T by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge, or through faucets (for testnet).
To bridge MEER-T to Qitmeer Network Testnet, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select Qitmeer Network Testnet as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
To build on Qitmeer 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 Qitmeer 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 MEER-T on Qitmeer Network Testnet, ensure your wallet is connected to the Qitmeer Network Testnet network, enter the recipient's address, specify the amount of MEER-T to send, review the gas fee, and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
