**About project :**\* ZetaChain is the world's first and only blockchain that connects everything. It facilitates asset transfers, message delivery and smart contract calls between different blockchains and layers - thus enabling first-of-its-kind omnichain-dApps (odApps) that can leverage the liquidity of multiple networks and update the states of all connected networks. You can read more about the project at this [link](https://www.zetachain.com/docs/learn/what-is-zetachain/).\*

### Step 0. Social Networks

Subscribe to the project's social networks:

Step 1. Registration
--------------------

Go to the official [testnet](https://labs.zetachain.com/leaderboard?code=3IUA8mWB2BGEb7SyTfeJ_) page and connect using your Twitter account:

Next, you connect your wallet. I am using Metamask.

After completing the registration you will get the first ZETA points:

Step 2. Obtaining test tokens
-----------------------------

For further work, you will need test tokens, which you will use in the testing process.

First of all, you will get test tokens for swaps and commissions:

**ETH :**

1.  Go to : [https://goerlifaucet.com/](https://goerlifaucet.com/)
    
2.  Register with google-account or email.
    
3.  Insert the address of the wallet into the given space and request a test ETH:
    

![Test ETH can be requested once in 24 hours.](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/db7c631957ce68c42a4d546854592b86084d15b46adc78bcce9448966cd27c30.png)

Test ETH can be requested once in 24 hours.

**MATIC:**

1.  Go to: [https://mumbaifaucet.com/](https://mumbaifaucet.com/)
    
2.  Register with a Google account or email.
    
3.  Insert the address of the wallet into the given space and request a test MATIC:

**BNB:**

1.  Go to the link: [https://testnet.bnbchain.org/faucet-smart](https://testnet.bnbchain.org/faucet-smart)
    
2.  Pass the captcha.
    
3.  Insert the address of the wallet into the given space and request a test BNB:
    

![](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/190353f9bbbd2a26a14e25ac87dcd1a8f3982ca80e632d18e1fc5f306933280b.png)

**BTC:**

1.  Installing the [XDEFI](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/xdefi-wallet/hmeobnfnfcmdkdcmlblgagmfpfboieaf) Wallet
    
2.  Go to settings and switch to "ZetaChain Testnet"
    

![](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/ead7ee0f0ff8dc5cb6579cb09ea054ce12efde1ae304e1959d806ddb4fbf2292.png)

After that copy your BTCt address and request test tokens:

1.  Go to the link: [https://coinfaucet.eu/en/btc-testnet/](https://coinfaucet.eu/en/btc-testnet/)
    
2.  Insert the address of the wallet into the given space and request a test BTC:
    

![](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/a6971c777516fffcc3bf17a4935c61bc239dd7632641a5d18308e8c82a9c90ba.png)

Next, you need to get ZETA tokens, which you will also use:

1.  Go to [https://labs.zetachain.com/get-zeta](https://labs.zetachain.com/get-zeta) or just click on "Get ZETA" on the testnet page.
    
2.  Then click on "Request Assets" and wait a while:
    

![](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/c35e3e2dfb42c4f42b7613433a2bb4112e859053bb4b460985b3cc4136e4fed4.png)

Sometimes test tokens do not come after the request. In this case, go to the [ZetaChain discord](https://discord.com/invite/kjQBqcZtnh) then go to the the [#zeta-faucet](https://discord.com/channels/858516330432299008/922357353423175680) and send this command:

    zeta faucet drip <your wallet adress>
    

Step 3: Testing the platform
----------------------------

The ZetaChain test process is represented by performing all sorts of activities, such as transfers or exchanging different assets between networks:

### 3.1. ZETA-USDT Swap

1.  Go to [https://labs.zetachain.com/swap](https://labs.zetachain.com/swap) or just click on the section "Swap" on the testnet page.
    
2.  Under "Swap from" select the network from which you will swap ZETA, and under "Receive" into which one.
    

In my case, it is an exchange of ZETA in Polygon Mumbai network to USDT in BSC Testnet network:

![In some cases the transaction may be interrupted. The recommended minimum amount of ZETA for the swap is 3.](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/88e6080917549e4a1831e51b3aa073edf6694e12cd8534e0aec76a39a1c973e5.png)

In some cases the transaction may be interrupted. The recommended minimum amount of ZETA for the swap is 3.

### 3.2. gETH-ZETA Swap

Do everything the same, but this time make an exchange gETH in the Goerli network to ZETA in the Polygon Mumbai network:

![](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/c75fa32400b7f72380cc90cae1faa86c0cae3ebc80b012e3fb3d6c87f17c6323.png)

### 3.3. MATIC-ZETA Swap

Do everything the same, but this time make an exchange tMATIC at Polygon Mumbai to ZETA at Goerli:

![](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/3ec4c4a789d641ad75e260603c1494e49ad932e68dc2d82dd5c5522be5eaacce.png)

### 3.4. BTC Swap

Do everything the same, but this time make an exchange BTCt in the Bitcoin Testnet network to gETH in the Goerli network:

![](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/0cea191640cebea725ab4bfa3a7dcfc572dc5b080990c87c42f721ca861e1085.png)

4\. Earn ZETA Points
--------------------

As you may have noticed, your ZETA Points have increased after swaps:

![](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/b04f355c84d63b77ac2d5569800336e73b8cebfec15e42fa602a08f8ea7caca2.png)

What are ZETA Points? - It's a way to track your progress as a ZetaLabs tester, whether it's the number of new members you invited, the weekly transactions you made, or the bugs you discovered and reported.

Below is a detailed list of activities and the amount of reward points you'll get for completing them:

*   5000 points for everyone who register with your invite link
    
*   7000 points for making weekly transaction (you can receive points only once per week)
    
*   1750 points for every weekly transaction made by the guy who registered by your invite link
    
*   10000+ points if you will find any problems and send them to ZetaChain Discord. Amount of points you are going to receive depends on how serious is the problem.
    
*   Also you might receive something extra if you are following [ZetaChain Twitter](https://twitter.com/zetablockchain)
    

Points we should have already received

*   5000 points you should have already received for signing up
    
*   You will get 7,000 points weekly by doing any swap
    

### Inviting

To invite new members through your invitation link and receive additional points, go to "Earn ZETA Points" on the testnet page:

![](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/22af56b3b7b1df031695145eca643036c71cee7304112537107e5bd15b6996d6.png)

By clicking on "Copy Link" you will receive your referral link, which you can send to your friends. Each of you will receive extra points for signing up. In addition, you will receive a weekly reward for your friends' swaps.

Also, if you come across any errors while testing, you can report them in discord in the [#testnet-feedback](https://discord.com/channels/858516330432299008/915016572127567982) or by filling out the [form](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1SjWd1Y2CYe8Zi3ljUlUSVOfM5yWOaUzfe6YJpmCG6EQ/viewform?edit_requested=true) and get extra points.

Step 5. Galxe x ZetaChain campaign
----------------------------------

During the testnet you also have the opportunity to get special NFTs from Galxe x ZetaChain, which will confirm your participation in the testnet and for holding which participants will be assigned various roles in the discord.
