Setting up a Wallet

1. Go to https://testnet.injective.exchange.

2. Click the “Connect to a wallet” dropdown button in the top right-hand corner.

3. Connect a testnet wallet by either importing your private key or by creating a new address. If you choose to create a new address, make sure to write down your private key on a piece of paper and store it in a secure location.

4. Click “Airdrop”

5. Using a referral code will reward you with an additional 1,000 testnet USDT. If you have a referral code you would like to use with your airdrop, click on the red text.

6. Enter your referral code in the text input and click “Submit”.

7. If your referral code is valid, you will be returned to the previous screen and your referral code will be displayed in green text. If it is invalid and you cannot find a valid code, click “Cancel” to continue with redeeming your airdrop.

8. Twitter and WeChat are both available options for verifying your wallet address for an airdrop. WeChat users will be guided by a bot. In this walkthrough, we will focus on the Twitter flow. Click “Tweet” to be directed to Twitter.

9. Log in to your Twitter account (this is used to verify your testnet account).

10. Click “Tweet”.

11. Make sure your twitter account is set to public so that our bot can find your tweet to verify you. Click “Verify”.

12. Once your airdrop is received, your wallet should open to confirm that you have received your testnet funds. You are ready to start trading!
