Obtaining Testnet Tokens

To deploy contracts or interact with the Cypher testnet, you'll need testnet tokens to cover transaction fees.

Access the Testnet Faucet

  • URL: <Cypher Faucet URL> (Replace with the official faucet link).

Request Tokens

  • Enter your wallet address and submit the request.

  • Tokens will be transferred to your wallet.

Verify Receipt:

  • Check your balance on the testnet using a wallet or block explorer.

Best Practices for Secure Deployment

  1. Secure Private Keys: Use a .env file or a key management solution to handle private keys or mnemonics securely.

  2. Validate Transactions: Monitor transactions on Cypherscan for confirmation and ensure expected behavior.

  3. Leverage Gateway Services: Properly configure the Gateway URL to handle encrypted workflows.

  4. Audit Contracts: Perform thorough audits of your Solidity code to ensure security and compliance with FHE principles.

By following these steps, you can efficiently deploy and manage your smart contracts on the Cypher testnet while utilizing the platform's fully homomorphic encryption capabilities.
