Networks

Testnet with free TAZ, and mainnet with real ZEC.

Kakure runs on two Zcash networks and keeps them apart on your device: each has its own operator key, chips, positions and cached files, and a backup from one can't be imported into the other.

Switching to itOne tapA deliberate "Slide to use real money"

Switch with the network capsule at the top of the app; the whole app re-tints so you always know which one you're on. Every visit loads both networks' signed files, whichever you use, so browsing doesn't tell the site which one you're on; a trade does, since its relay path names the network.

Getting TAZ

Testnet coins are free from a faucet:

  • Fauzec sends to Unified and Sapling addresses.
  • Valar sends a small amount once a day.

Send them to your wallet's shielded address, then deposit TAZ exactly as you would ZEC.

A trade link names only the asset and Window length, after the # (/trade#BTC/5m), so the site never receives it. It opens on whichever network you're on.
