QRL Zond Testnet

Appearance

Making a transaction ​

Send testnet Zond funds using a the gzond console.

Tip

You can create a new console for a running node to interact with the QRL Zond Testnet by starting a new command line session and running:

Mac/Linux

./gzond attach --datadir=gzonddata

Windows

gzond.exe attach --datadir=gzonddata

This avoids being distracted by the streamed log of node activity and output.
