First off, thanks for volunteering to help us test the new Bitcoin functionality on testnet for Hiro Wallet! đź’“đź’“

  1. To get started, you need version v3.34.0 installed in your browser.
    1. If your browser hasn’t already auto-updated your installation to this version, install the build manually with these instructions.
    2. Or switch to Firefox and install from their add-ons page since it’s known to be approved there already
  2. Once you’ve installed, enter an existing Secret Key or create a new burner wallet for testing.
  3. Then go to the app menu in the top-right corner and select “Change network” and “Testnet”:

  1. You should then see a Bitcoin address for copying upon selecting “Receive” on the home screen:

  1. Copy that address and paste into into the Bitcoin testnet faucet of your choice. Here are a few to try:
    1. https://bitcoinfaucet.uo1.net/
    2. https://coinfaucet.eu/en/btc-testnet
    3. https://onchain.io/bitcoin-testnet-faucet
    4. https://tbtc.mocacinno.com/
    5. https://testnet.help/en/btcfaucet/testnet
    6. https://testnet-faucet.com/btc-testnet/
  2. Wait for the transaction to deposit by viewing it under “Activity”
    1. Confirm that the transaction is properly shown to come from the address indicated by the faucet and with the correct amount
  3. Once confirmed, select “Send” then “Bitcoin” to view the send modal
    1. Enter a recipient and amount for your BTC transfer
    2. Ask a friend for their Bitcoin testnet address or use one from another of your wallet’s accounts
    3. Check that the information on the preview screen is correct and confirm
  4. Wait for the transaction to send by viewing it under “Activity”
    1. Confirm the transaction is properly shown to send to the address you indicated and with the correct amount
  5. Most importantly: Report any bugs or improvements you’d make to the overall experience by:
