Happy Monday Ninjas! @everyone
Astroport has officially launched its public testnet on Injective ✦
Here are the instructions on how to get started with the beta:

Step 2 - Get testnet funds on Injective: https://testnet.faucet.injective.network/
**Step 3 **- Connect to the Injective testnet on Astroport & interact (select Injective as the network on the top right): https://app.astroport.fi/

Step 5 - If you find any issues you can provide feedback at any time! https://astroport.typeform.com/injectiveastro
Step 6 - You can also share Feedback or get in touch with the Astroport team via their official Discord server
Step 7 - Uncover a link within the next 24 hrs on https://app.astroport.fi/ to get access to a special mint page and mint your NFT AstroBadge (only available for a limited time)
Detailed Instructions
1. Using Keplr
If you want to use Kepler for the Astroport testnet, you need INJ on mainnet. No worries, this INJ wont be used to pay fees on testnet but it just enables Keplr to sign transactions on the Injective testnet.
2. Getting Testnet Funds
First, you’ll need to get INJ on the Injective testnet. You can get some funds ($INJ, $APE, $USDT, $CRV, $CVX, $AAVE and $SHIB) via the Injective faucet on https://testnet.faucet.injective.network/.
Your Injective address is the same as your Mainnet address. Additionally you can follow these steps to see the testnet in KEPLR: Go to https://hub.injective.dev/ and click on “Connect” in the header, select Keplr wallet and approve the message to enable the Injective testnet in your Keplr wallet. Click on Keplr wallet and select “Injective Testnet” as network.
Please note: In case you face some issues with the display of your funds on Keplr, delete the Injective testnet and repeat the steps above.
