SFT 1-8-24 is a cross-chain bridge testnet that uses ZAF as the native gas token and has no public info URL, enabling safe, pre‑production validation of swaps, liquidity routing, and smart‑contract integrations. Typical workflows include simulating cross‑chain transfers, fee estimation, and load testing with faucet ZAF (avg gas cost: effectively zero for testers; block speed/TPS: variable; activity: bursty during release testing as of Sep 2025).
SFT 1-8-24 is unique as an internally managed, bridge‑focused testnet with ZAF faucets, frequent updates/resets, and an isolated environment optimized for route validation, relayer behavior, and failure‑recovery testing. Unlike public testnets, it prioritizes bridge‑specific experimentation over fixed performance targets (avg gas cost: ~0 via faucet; block speed/TPS: variable/unpublished as of Sep 2025; activity: developer‑driven spikes), so it’s not suitable for production benchmarking.
SFT 1-8-24 uses ZAF as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain ZAF by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge, or through faucets (for testnet).
