Faucet

To explore and interact with the XRPL EVM sidechain, you need test XRP (XRP) to cover transaction fees and execute smart contracts. This guide explains how to obtain test XRP for both the Testnet and Devnet environments.

Testnet Faucets

  1. XRPL EVM Faucet

    • This website supports both Testnet and Devnet .
    • Paste your 0x (EVM) address or connect MetaMask.
    • If you don’t have MetaMask installed or the Testnet network configured, the faucet will guide you.
    • You can claim up to 90 XRP per request.
  2. Enigma Validator’s Faucet

    • Join the XRPLEVM Discord channel and navigate to #faucet.
    • Send the command:
      !faucet <YOUR_ADDRESS>
    • This faucet supports 0x... (EVM) and ethm... Cosmos addresses, providing 50 XRP per request.
  3. Bridging via SquidRouter

    • If you already have some XRPL Testnet funds, you can bridge assets from XRPL Testnet to XRPL EVM Testnet using the SquidRouter interface.
    • See Using the Bridge for more detailed instructions.

Fund Your XRPL Testnet Account

Before bridging from XRPL Testnet to XRPL EVM Testnet, you must fund an XRPL Testnet account with test XRP. One convenient option is:

  • XRPL MetaMask Snap
    • Install the Snap in MetaMask.
    • Use its built-in faucet or XRPL faucets it supports to fund your XRPL Testnet account.

Once your XRPL Testnet account is funded, follow the bridge instructions or use SquidRouter to move assets to XRPL EVM Testnet.


Manual Bridging with XRPL Payment Memos

For advanced use cases or custom dApp integrations, you can trigger an interchain transfer by sending a Payment transaction on XRPL with specific memos (via axelar gpm). Detailed instructions on crafting these memos and handling cross-chain requests can be found in the Send XRP, IOUs and ERC20s Guide and Send Cross-Chain Messages guide.
