Casper Wallet Open Beta
Overview
The Casper Wallet Open Beta is an opportunity for anyone to test drive the newest browser wallet for the Casper Network. From March 15–31 beta participants will be able to use the wallet with a few apps on Casper testnet, submit feedback, and interact in our community spaces. After the open beta week, an exclusive NFT commemorating the launch of Casper Wallet will be sent to all participants (more on that to be revealed later.)
Before you start…
- Join the official Casper Wallet Telegram channel.
- Make sure you’ve signed up as a beta participant by entering your email at https://Casperwallet.io . We’ll be sending out important announcements and instructions throughout the test.
Playbook
Follow the playbook step by step to participate in the beta and explore as much of Casper Wallet’s available capabilities as possible.
Step 1 Install Casper Wallet
Step 2 Create your account
Complete onboarding to set up your secret recovery phrase and first account.
Step 3 Sign in to CSPR.live with Casper Wallet
Make sure you switch your account to Testnet in Casper Wallet
Then visit https://testnet.cspr.live/sign-in and sign in with Casper Wallet.
Step 4 Fund your account
Now that you’re signed in you’ll need a little testnet CSPR in your new account to complete the rest of the playbook. You can do this using the testnet faucet.
Go to https://testnet.cspr.live/tools/faucet
Click Request Tokens.
Wait a minute or two for the request to finish. Your balance should update with 2000 CSPR automatically.
Step 5 Transfer CSPR
In Casper Wallet, open the hamburger menu and create a second account.
Go to https://testnet.cspr.live/transfer . (Make sure you’re still signed in using Casper Wallet)
Going through the steps of the wizard, try sending some CSPR from your first account to your second account.
Once you see your CSPR balance update in Casper Wallet with the transferred amount you are ready to continue (this could take a minute or so).
Step 6 Delegate CSPR
Once Casper Wallet is connected to CSPR.live visit https://testnet.cspr.live/delegate-stake . Choose an eligible validator from the validator list (one that does not have over 952 delegators.)
In the Amount field enter the following value exactly: 555
Continue through the Delegate wizard. Sign the deploy with Casper Wallet to execute the deploy and delegate your CSPR.
Step 7 Submit the Public Key Registration form
Once you have completed the steps above and submitted any feedback fill out and submit the Participant Public Key Registration.
Make sure to fill this form out before the end of the open beta window (March 31st) to ensure you get your participation NFT.
Ad Hoc Testing
Once you’ve completed Steps 1–7 you’re free to explore Casper Wallet as you see fit. Here are the features we recommend you try out at least once:
- Lock and unlock Casper Wallet
- Create a new account in Casper Wallet
- Rename an account in Casper Wallet
- Change your wallet Timeout duration
- Delete a Connected Site in Casper Wallet
- View your secret recovery phrase in Casper Wallet
- Import a Signer secret key file into Casper Wallet (if you dont have a Signer account you can ignore this.) Check out the user guide for instructions.
- Try minting an NFT on CSPR.studio Testnet
Submitting Feedback
Submit your bug reports and feedback through the Casper Wallet Beta feedback board. If you have an improvement suggestion, use the ‘General Feedback’ type.
Although it’s useful to know where things are working well, critical feedback is how we make Casper Wallet the best it can be. During your test, if you encounter anything that doesn’t work the way you would expect, if something is unclear or confusing, submit it to our board. Even if you’re not 100% sure it's a valid issue!
Verifying Participation
Once you have completed steps 1–6 of the playbook and submitted any feedback fill out and submit the Participant Public Key Registration.
Make sure to fill this form out during the open beta testing window: March 15–31
Wrapping up
That’s it for now. Make sure to sign up at Casperwallet.io to receive important announcements and updates throughout the open beta period. And be sure to follow the official Casper Wallet Twitter account.
