Plasma Network ke testnet aur bridge ko use karne ke liye aapko primarily Ethereum (ETH) ki zaroorat hoti hai, lekin ye asli ETH nahi balki "Testnet ETH" hota hai.
Plasma ek Layer 2 scaling solution hai jo Ethereum blockchain ke upar kaam karta hai. Iska maqsad transactions ko sasta aur tez banana hai. Niche iske testnet aur bridging process ki mukammal tafseel di gayi hai:
1. Testnet ke liye Zaroori Coin: Sepolia ETH
Plasma ka testnet aksar Sepolia network par chalta hai. Isliye, aapko kisi bhi transaction ya bridge ko test karne ke liye Sepolia ETH ki zaroorat hoti hai.
* Yeh kya hai? Yeh real money nahi hai. Iski koi market value nahi hoti aur ise sirf developers aur testers istemal karte hain.
* Kahan se milta hai? Ise "Faucet" (faucet.sepolia.dev jaise websites) se muft hasil kiya jata hai.
2. Bridge Kaise Kaam Karta Hai?
Bridge ka kaam assets ko ek chain se doosri chain par bhejna hota hai. Plasma ke context mein, aap Layer 1 (Ethereum Sepolia Testnet) se assets ko Layer 2 (Plasma Testnet) par bhejte hain.
* Deposit: Jab aap Sepolia ETH ko Plasma bridge mein dalte hain, toh woh L1 par lock ho jata hai aur utni hi mardaar mein "Plasma ETH" aapko L2 par mil jata hai.
* Gas Fees: Plasma par transaction karne ke liye bhi aapko gas fees deni padti hai, jo usi testnet coin (ETH) mein kat-ti hai. Kyunki Plasma L2 hai, yahan fees bohot hi kam hoti hai.
3. Plasma ki Khusoosiyat aur Coins
Plasma architecture (jaise ki OMG Network ya purane Polygon designs) mein aksar ek hi native coin ko use kiya jata hai jo Ethereum se link hota hai.
* Native Token: Kuch Plasma implementations apna khud ka token (jaise $OMG) gas fees ke liye use karte hain, lekin testnet phase mein zyada tar ETH hi base currency hoti hai.
* Security: Plasma ki khasiyat ye hai ki agar L2 network band bhi ho jaye, toh aapka coin L1 (Ethereum) par safe rehta hai "Fraud Proofs" ki wajah se.
4. Step-by-Step Process (Testnet Bridge)
Agar aap Plasma testnet try karna chahte hain, toh ye steps follow hote hain:
* Wallet Setup: MetaMask mein Sepolia aur Plasma Testnet networks add karein.
* Faucet: Sepolia ETH hasil karein.
* Bridge URL: Plasma ki official testnet bridge website par jayein.
* Transfer: Sepolia ETH enter karein aur 'Deposit' par click karein.
* Confirmation: Kuch minutes mein aapke coins Plasma network par nazar aane lagenge.
Khulasa (Summary)
Plasma testnet aur bridge ke liye Sepolia ETH sabse ahem coin hai. Ye bridge process testnet par bilkul muft hota hai kyunki aap "fake" tokens use kar rahe hote hain taaki real mainnet par galti na ho.
