Start Your Journey with Toby Network: A Step-by-Step Guide to Toby’s Testnet

Step 1: Set Up Your Solana Wallet

1. Download and Install Your Wallet:

• Head over to the Phantom website to download your wallet. Phantom is our recommended choice due to its ease of use and robust features.

• Install Phantom as a browser extension, compatible with most major browsers.

1. Configure Your Wallet:

• Once installed, open the extension and click “Create a new wallet.”

• Securely set up a password and don’t forget to back up your secret recovery phrase safely. It's your wallet's key!

1) Go to your profile

2) "Developer Settings"

3) Change your Network

4) Press "Testnet"

Step 2: Connect to the Solana Testnet

1. Access Your Network Settings:

• Click the icon in the top left of your Phantom wallet. This is where the magic begins.

• Navigate to “Developer Settings” and then “Change Network.”

1. Switch to Testnet:

• From the list of networks, select “Testnet”. This switches your environment from the main network to our sandbox, where you can play and test without any risk.

Step 3: Acquire Testnet $SOL

Before you can participate in our Testnet activities:

• Get Free Testnet $SOL:

• Visit SolFaucet to receive free Testnet $SOL necessary for transactions on the Testnet.

  Enter your Solana address and press "Testnet"

Step 4: Participate in Staking/Unstaking on the Testnet

While the future token isn't available yet, your involvement is crucial at this stage:

1. Stake/Unstake SOL:
