Send a first transaction

Testnet

Use the hosted RP1 wallet to fund a testnet account, send a native transfer, and verify the result.

Use a testnet-only wallet. Never import a production mnemonic or key into the testnet application, source control, shell history, documentation, or a browser bundle.

1. Open and fund the wallet

  1. Open https://app.rp.one/wallet.
  2. Create or import a testnet-only wallet.
  3. Confirm the UI reports chain chain-1 and a positive, advancing height.
  4. If the hosted faucet is available, request test tokens for the wallet address. Otherwise, ask the RP1 testnet operator to fund that address; there is no client-side faucet fallback.
  5. Wait until the funded balance is visible before preparing a transfer.

2. Send a native transfer

  1. Choose a testnet recipient address you control.
  2. Enter a small amount of RP1 in the wallet’s display-unit field and send it.
  3. Review the recipient, amount, chain, and fee before signing.
  4. Keep the resulting transaction hash.

The wallet form accepts RP1 display units and converts them to the smallest native unit before signing: 1 RP1 = 1,000,000 urp1. For example, entering 0.000001 sends 1urp1.

3. Verify the result

Open the hash in https://testnetexplorer.rp.one, or query REST directly:

Check the committed transactionbash
TX_HASH='<transaction-hash>'
curl -fsS \
  "https://testnet.rest.rp.one/cosmos/tx/v1beta1/txs/$TX_HASH" \
  | jq '{
      hash: .tx_response.txhash,
      height: .tx_response.height,
      code: .tx_response.code,
      raw_log: .tx_response.raw_log
    }'

Treat a broadcast acknowledgement and a committed observation as different lifecycle states:

  1. Submitted — the signed envelope was accepted for broadcast.
  2. Observed — a query returned the same transaction identity and a positive committed height.
  3. Successful — the committed execution code is zero.

The response must contain the same hash, a positive height, and code 0. If the observation does not match the submitted transaction, stop instead of marking the transfer complete.
