Hyperliquid Testnet Faucet FAQ

Select Hyperliquid and the Testnet network on this page, enter your wallet address or connect a wallet, then complete the verification to receive HYPE on Hyperliquid Testnet. The base drip is free and requires no Quicknode account, no post on X and no minimum mainnet balance, so a brand new wallet can claim. Optional bonuses increase the amount but are never required.

You can claim HYPE once every 12 hours per network, and the exact base amount for Hyperliquid Testnet is shown on the next step, once you have entered a wallet address. Completing the optional Hyperliquid signup step on the next screen doubles the drip, and Quicknode customers on a paid plan double it again, up to four times the base amount plus priority in the queue for faster delivery. The 12 hour cooldown is per wallet address per network, so you can still claim on a different network in the meantime.

Hyperliquid Testnet is the test environment for Hyperliquid, which pairs HyperCore, a native non-EVM order-book engine for spot and perpetuals, with HyperEVM, an EVM execution layer on chain ID 998. It uses test HYPE as its gas token. Assets move between the two halves through system addresses rather than a conventional bridge.

Hyperliquid Testnet uses chain ID 998, and you can view your transactions on Hyperliquid Testnet Explorer. To add the network to MetaMask or another wallet, enter that chain ID together with an RPC URL and the explorer URL, or connect your wallet on this page and approve the network switch when prompted. For a dedicated endpoint without shared rate limits, create a free Hyperliquid RPC endpoint on Quicknode.

The most common cause is the 12 hour cooldown, which applies per wallet address per network, so a repeat request inside that window is rejected. Other frequent causes are a failed bot check, an address that is not a valid Hyperliquid address, having the wrong network selected, or the Hyperliquid Testnet faucet wallet running low on funds. Smart contract wallets and multisig addresses can also fail where a standard address succeeds. The first-party Hyperliquid testnet faucet requires the same address to have prior mainnet deposit activity, which locks out fresh wallets. This faucet has no such requirement, so a new address can claim here. If it keeps failing, reach out on X or Discord.

Hyperliquid Testnet is where you test trading integrations, market-making logic and contracts that read exchange state, since the onchain order book has no equivalent on other chains. It also supports ordinary EVM contract deployment on HyperEVM. For a worked example, see Read Hypercore Oracle Prices in HyperEVM.
