Stability Testnet is the public test network for Stability Protocol that uses the FREE token to pay gas, enabling costless, risk‑free deployment and debugging before mainnet. Typical use cases include smart‑contract and dApp validation, end‑to‑end cross‑chain bridge simulations (lock/mint/burn/redeem), relayer/oracle testing, and load/performance rehearsals. As of Sep 2025, official metrics for average gas cost, block speed, TPS, and daily activity are not published; check https://stabilityprotocol.com for updates.
Unlike production chains, Stability Testnet is engineered for rapid iteration with FREE‑denominated gas, frequent upgrades, and resettable state so developers can reproduce scenarios and benchmark bridge logic without financial exposure. It offers a controlled environment with consistent RPC behavior and predictable fees that simplifies cross‑chain compatibility testing and regression checks. As of Sep 2025, audited benchmarks (average gas cost, block time, TPS, usage) are not publicly available, so treat third‑party numbers as provisional.
Stability Testnet uses FREE as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain FREE by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge, or through faucets (for testnet).
