Anyone done the testnet thing? I'm at the step where it says I don't have enough ETH in my wallet which is correct because I have it in Compound. You don't actually use any ETH in this right? But I still need to have it in meta mask to do this? I'd hate to pay like $15 in gas fees shoving ETH around if I don't have too.
Help a brother out /biz/

yes ive done it. you don't use real ETH retard. they send you GOETH, which is fake ETH, and you use the fake ETH for gas too. you have to connect your metamask to the testnet (on the top of metamask, where it says Main Ethereum Network, click that). there should be instructions about how to get the test network to send you the 32 test ETH to deposit

What's the point in doing it?

if you plan on staking on your own in the future, it's a good dry run to make sure you know how to do it. also it helps out their testing if you care about that

the part where you need to pick a client is not really part of it anymore right, that's just to give you an impression?
