An EVM-compatible testnet (Chain ID 1992) for the Sanko blockchain, offering fast, low-cost transactions and seamless dApp testing with native tDMT for developers and integrators.
Sanko Testnet is Sanko’s public EVM-compatible network that uses valueless $tDMT for gas and mirrors mainnet execution for safe development. It’s designed for deploying and iterating smart contracts, staging cross-chain bridge flows, and end-to-end QA of wallets, oracles, and dApps using the same RPCs and tooling as mainnet. A built-in faucet and explorer let you fund accounts, simulate gas costs, and validate behavior before production.
It provides a production-like developer experience with full EVM parity, stable RPC endpoints, and a faucet-first workflow that enables rapid, low-risk iteration. For performance comparisons, monitor average gas cost, block speed, TPS, and network activity in the official explorer and telemetry linked from the docs; these real-time metrics are the authoritative source and reflect the testnet’s low-fee, fast-finality design.
Sanko Testnet uses $tDMT as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain $tDMT by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge, or through faucets (for testnet).
To bridge $tDMT to Sanko Testnet, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select Sanko Testnet as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
To build on Sanko 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 Sanko 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 $tDMT on Sanko Testnet, ensure your wallet is connected to the Sanko Testnet network, enter the recipient's address, specify the amount of $tDMT to send, review the gas fee, and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
