Airdrops

Now you have your wallet set up. Let's proceed with getting some tokens from the faucet. The testnet has a running faucet which is able to airdrop arbitrary tokens. For example purposes, we'll use the tokens called DARKfZX1utGbz8ZpnvtCH6i46nSDZEEGa5fMnhoubWPq and BobvfQrDaf32VNhVtX6Adyi3WGfPpPYZPJBn6rnrxHKm

So let's airdrop some of these into our wallet:

$ ./drk airdrop 42.69 DARKfZX1utGbz8ZpnvtCH6i46nSDZEEGa5fMnhoubWPq
$ ./drk airdrop 13.37 BobvfQrDaf32VNhVtX6Adyi3WGfPpPYZPJBn6rnrxHKm

There is a limit of 100 for testnet airdrops currently.

Note: you have wait some minutes between airdrops since they're rate-limited.

On success, you should see a transaction ID. If successful, the airdrop transactions will how be in the consensus' mempool, waiting for inclusion in the next block. Depending on the network, finalization of the blocks could take some time. You'll have to wait for this to happen. If your drk subscribe is running, then after some time your balance should be in your wallet.

You can check your wallet balance using drk:

$ ./drk wallet --balance
