Notes

  • Important: Using the faucet command requires a tiny amount of Mega Testnet ETH (just enough for gas) already in your account. If you don’t have any ETH yet, please visit testnet.megaeth.com to get your initial funds.
  • You must provide either --account or --private-key to authenticate with the faucet
  • Addresses are limited to one faucet claim every 24 hours
  • After a successful request, you can check your balance with mega balance
  • If you have extra Mega Testnet ETH and would like to support the faucet, you can transfer it directly to the contract which is deployed at: 0xaF5AA075cb327d83cB8D565D95202494569517a9. This will help ensure the faucet doesn’t run out of funds. Thank you :)
