A developer-focused blockchain testnet for ST 12-12 V1, using GXE and Chain ID 83862 to enable low-cost, safe dApp experimentation and tooling integration.
ST 12-12 V1 is a testnet network for the cross-chain bridge that uses GXE as the native currency, enabling safe validation of bridge routes, smart contract deployments, and wallet flows without financial risk. It is primarily used for staging integrations, load testing, and QA before mainnet releases. Key performance metrics (avg gas cost, block speed, TPS, network activity) are not publicly published for this testnet and vary by test cycle; consult any current testnet telemetry or explorer provided with your build for live figures.
ST 12-12 V1 is unique because it is purpose-built for bridge-centric scenarios, mirroring production routing, security checks, and upgrade cadence while remaining isolated from mainnet. It uses GXE in a testnet context to avoid real gas-fee exposure and supports rapid resets plus enhanced observability for precise debugging. No fixed performance guarantees are made, so block speed, TPS, and gas usage are tuned for test fidelity rather than maximum throughput.
ST 12-12 V1 uses GXE as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain GXE by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge, or through faucets (for testnet).
To bridge GXE to ST 12-12 V1, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select ST 12-12 V1 as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
