Faucets

This page describes how to receive imETH and imua tokens via the faucet.

exoETH

exoETH is a testnet token used for staking. It has no real value. The way to obtainexoETH via our faucet is listed below. You will need some Sepolia ETH to pay for gas, and your Ethereum private key.

This faucet gives out 1 exoETH every 24 hours per requesting address.

# script constants
EXO_ETH_FAUCET_ADDR=0x.... # join the validator chat to obtain this

# user input
ETH_PRIVATE_KEY=0xabcde....
ETHEREUM_RPC_URL=https://rpc.ankr.com/eth_sepolia

cast send --rpc-url $ETHEREUM_RPC_URL \
    $EXO_ETH_FAUCET_ADDR \
    "requestTokens()" \
    --private-key $ETH_PRIVATE_KEY

The expected output looks similar to that of any other transaction.

imua

imua is the native token for Imua, used to pay for gas. It can only be obtained once the network is live (post the bootstrap phase). Use our faucet to obtain this token. The token on testnet has no real value.

FAUCET_URL=https://..... # join the validator chat to obtain this
IM_ADDRESS=$(imuad --home $HOMEDIR keys show -a $ACCOUNT_KEY_NAME)

curl -X POST $FAUCET_URL -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d "{\"address\": \"$IM_ADDRESS\"}"

The response is a json containing the transaction hash, which can be tracked on our explorer
