ℹ️ Introduction to Alephium Faucets

Alephium Faucets allow users to receive testnet ALPH tokens for development and testing purposes.

Testnet HTTP Faucet: Users can request testnet-v16 tokens via an API call. Simply send a POST request with the wallet address:
```
curl -X POST -d 'Your_Wallet_Address' <https://faucet.testnet.alephium.org/send>
```
The faucet has a cooldown period of a few minutes to prevent spam.
ALPH Token Faucet in the Extension Wallet:
- Available for devnet (1000 ALPH per request) and testnet (12 ALPH per request).
- Built into the Alephium Extension Wallet, accessible via the UI.
Token Faucet dApp (Next.js):
- A web-based faucet where users can request tokens via a simple interface.
- Run locally with:
```
npm install
npm run dev
```
- Accessible at http://localhost:3000, where users connect their wallet, input the token amount (max 2 per request), and confirm the transaction.

These faucets help developers test transactions, smart contracts, and dApps on Alephium’s testnet without using real tokens.
