How to send NIL​

This guide walks you through how to send NIL testnet tokens from one Nillion Testnet wallet to another Nillion Testnet wallet and find the transaction on a block explorer.

0. Set up a wallet and get NIL​

Follow the Creating a Nillion Wallet guide to set up a connected wallet.

Follow the Using the Faucet guide to request NIL testnet tokens.

1. Open Keplr and check your NIL balance​

  1. Open Keplr and find the "Search for asset or chain" search bar on the Home tab.

  2. Type in "NIL" to filter for your available balance of NIL.

  3. Click "NIL" to open the NIL on Nillion Testnet view.

2. Send NIL to another Nillion wallet​

  1. Click "Send"

  2. Under "Wallet address" paste in a valid Nillion wallet address - this address should start with nillion1

  3. Under "Amount" type in the amount of NIL to send or click "Max" to send all your NIL minus the transaction fee (Tx Fee) shown at the bottom of Keplr.

  4. Under "Memo", optionally add a note to be sent with the transaction.

  5. Click "Next."

  6. Confirm the transaction by reviewing details to make sure the recipient's wallet address, amount, and memo are correct.

Use an explorer to find your transaction:

  2. Find "Transactions" and click on the latest transaction.

  3. Look at the transaction details to see the onchain record of the NIL you just sent.
