Developers are able to leverage the Teller protocol to build their own innovative DeFi products. The protocol is designed in a way that is feature rich enough to power large scale applications, yet simple enough for a weekend hack.
The easiest way to test out the Teller platform and play around with it is to first obtain test USDC, ETH or DAI tokens through either a ‘faucet’ website or the Compound app.
Go to your preferred social media platform (Sorry Tom, no one uses MySpace anymore), and create a public tweet or post with your Ethereum wallet address.
Prove that you are not a robot (Skynet if you’re reading this, we submit to our new overlords)
Once the transaction has been broadcasted and confirmed on the network, the test Ethers will appear in your wallet. Now we're ready to Compound that wealth!
Select the USDC coin, click on the withdraw tab and then the Faucet link at the bottom.
Holy gas fees Batman! Confirm the transaction and follow the transaction on Etherscan.
Once successful, click on the link to follow the transaction on Etherscan. After the transaction has been broadcasted. Go to the USDC contract link and copy the contract address.
Enter the copied address into your Metamask wallet as a custom token.
Congratulations!
Click on the Dai token and select the withdraw tab in the popup. At the bottom of the popup click on FAUCET
Confirm the MetaMask notification and follow the transaction on Etherscan
Go to the DAI contract link and copy the contract address.
Import the contract into your Metamask as a custom token
Let the games begin!
Complete your address and captcha and receive 100 test LINK tokens.
Go to the transaction hash on Etherscan and copy the contract address from the LINK link (see what we did there?)
Add the contract address to your Metamask wallet as a custom token to check your LINK balance
Open a new tab and go to , enter the link to your post and select the amount of test Ethers you would like.
