Hey HZNation!

Horizon Exchange testnet is here!

We are releasing a quick start guide to get you prepared for Horizon Exchange on testnet. You will have a wallet connected to BSC testnet with BNB, HZN, and zUSD testnet tokens ready to use for testing by the end of this guide.

To get access to Horizon Exchange testnet it is easier to use Metamask because a step in the process only allows the Metamask wallet to connect to BscScan in order to receive HZN and zUSD testnet tokens.

Users wishing to test with Binance Chain wallet or Trust Wallet can create a Metamask account and follow this guide to receive HZN and zUSD testnet tokens. After that, you can transfer them to the wallet of your choice for testing.
