Mint atBTC on NEAR

---

We’re excited to have you participate in our testnet! This guide will demonstrate how to stake tBTC on Bitcoin Testnet4 and receive atBTC on NEAR network. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask in our Telegram community.

Step 1: Download and Install UniSat Wallet

• Visit https://unisat.io/

• For desktop, install the UniSat Chrome extension

• Follow the on-screen instructions to set up your wallet.

Step 2: Connect to Bitcoin Testnet4 (Beta)

• Open your UniSat wallet.

• Ensure your wallet is configured to connect to the “Bitcoin Testnet4 (Beta)” network. This is found in the network selection dropdown named “Bitcoin” within the wallet interface.

Step 3: Obtain tbTC from a Faucet

• Navigate to one of the following faucets to claim testnet Bitcoin (tbTC):

• Primary Faucet: https://faucet.testnet4.dev/
• Backup Faucet: https://coinfaucet.eu/en/btc-testnet4/
• Backup Faucet: https://mempool.space/testnet4/faucet (Select 500k sats option)
• Enter your UniSat wallet’s Bitcoin Testnet4 address and follow the faucet’s instructions to receive tbTC.

Step 4: Go to the Atlas Protocol Testnet Application

• https://testnet.atlasprotocol.com/

Step 5: Connect your UniSat wallet

• On the Atlas Protocol Testnet app, click either the “Connect to BTC testnet4 network” or the “Connect Wallet” button.

• In the pop-up window that appears, click “Connect to BTC testnet4 network”.

• A prompt will appear from your UniSat wallet. Click “Connect” to authorize the connection

Step 6: Initiate Staking

• In the “Amount” field, enter the amount of tbTC you wish to stake (the minimum amount is 0.0002 tbTC).

• Important, please make sure your wallet holds enough extra tBTC to cover gas fees, otherwise, you’ll encounter errors (example: if your wallet holds 0.0003 tBTC, you should only enter 0.0002 to leave enough room for gas fees).

Step 7: Select Receiving Chain

• For this example, we’re going to select NEAR testnet

• In the “Select Receiving Chain” dropdown menu, choose “NEAR testnet”.

Step 8: Set up a NEAR wallet (using Meteor)

• To receive atBTC on NEAR, you’ll need a NEAR testnet wallet. We’ll use Meteor Wallet for this guide.

• Go to https://wallet.meteorwallet.app/
• Click the “MAIN” button in the top-right corner and select “Testnet” from the dropdown.

• Claim your identity (use the generated address or create a custom one).

• Click “Create Wallet” and follow the instructions.

• Once your wallet is created, copy your NEAR testnet address (e.g., Atlas1234.testnet).

✅ DO -> username.testnet 🚫 DON’T -> username.near

Step 9: Enter Receiving Address and Stake

• Enter your NEAR wallet .testnet address in the “Enter Receiving Address” field and select the “Review” button.

• In the pop-up window, click “Stake”

• Sign the transaction in your UniSat wallet pop-up.

Step 10: Verify your atBTC

• Once you see the success message, the transaction may take some time to process.

• Important: Transactions can take 1–2 hours to confirm due to Bitcoin Testnet4 block times. You can check the ETA by clicking the “View on Block Explorer” link in the success pop-up window.

• Confirm your atBTC:

• Check your Meteor wallet

• On the NEAR testnet blockchain: https://testnet.nearblocks.io/
• ✅ Confirmation: You will see “atBTC Minted” under Staking History in the dashboard.
