An EVM-compatible testnet for the Chiliz Chain, Chiliz Spicy Testnet enables fast, low-cost CHZ-gas contract testing for sports and entertainment fan tokens and on-chain experiences.
Chiliz Spicy Testnet is the public EVM-compatible test network for Chiliz Chain that uses CHZ as the native gas token. It’s designed for developers to build and validate sports- and entertainment-focused dApps—Fan Tokens, NFT drops, ticketing, loyalty, payments—and to dry‑run cross‑chain bridge flows before mainnet deployment. Performance typically shows 2–5s block times, faucet‑funded near‑zero gas fees, and throughput in the hundreds of TPS (activity varies by test cycles), markedly faster and cheaper than Ethereum L1 (~12s blocks, ~15 TPS).
Chiliz Spicy Testnet is unique because it’s purpose‑built for the sports and entertainment ecosystem (e.g., Fan Tokens and Socios.com integrations) while remaining fully EVM‑compatible and CHZ‑denominated to mirror mainnet economics. Its PoSA EVM stack delivers fast finality and low‑cost transactions—commonly 2–5s blocks and negligible testnet fees—with capacity in the hundreds of TPS, comparable to other PoSA EVM networks and far above Ethereum mainnet. This vertical focus plus production‑like tooling (faucet, explorer, SDKs) streamlines migration of Solidity apps and access to a large network of teams, leagues, and fan communities.
Chiliz Spicy Testnet uses CHZ as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain CHZ by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge, or through faucets (for testnet).
To bridge CHZ to Chiliz Spicy Testnet, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select Chiliz Spicy Testnet as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
To build on Chiliz Spicy 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.
