How to Mint on Testnet?

Prerequisites​

To get started, make sure you have wallets that support both BTC and EVM-compatible addresses.
You can get test tokens from the following test token faucet links.

1. Connect Your Bitcoin Wallet​

1.1 Open BitVM Bridge, connect to Bitcoin BitVMNet, and sign in.​

1.2 Configure Signet Mode in Xverse​

Set the BTC node URL in your Xverse wallet to enable Signet mode.
Follow this setup guide.

1.3 Confirm Address and Amount​

Enter an amount between 0.0002 and 0.0006 BTC, and input your Sepolia address.
If your EVM wallet is connected, the receiving address will be auto-filled.

2. Select Funding UTXOs​

Choose UTXOs that are not associated with derivative assets (e.g., BRC-20).
If your selected UTXOs contain more BTC than the requested mint amount, the excess will be automatically returned to your Bitcoin address.

3. Generate Deposit Address​

A unique smart contract will be generated to receive your BTC based on your peg-in request.
You can preview the contract logic through a visualized diagram.

4. Make Your BTC Deposit​

Carefully review all transaction details and send your BTC to the generated address.

5. Mint YBTC on Ethereum​

The minting process takes approximately 20–30 minutes.
It’s safe to close the window — the process will continue in the background and will not be interrupted.
