Getting started
Set up a wallet, add GIWA Sepolia, and get test ETH. It takes about five minutes and costs nothing.
1. Get a wallet
GowaFun works with any Ethereum wallet, such as MetaMask, Rabby, Coinbase Wallet or a WalletConnect mobile wallet. GIWA is EVM compatible, so the address you already use on Ethereum works on GIWA too.
Keep your recovery phrase to yourself
Nobody from GowaFun or GIWA will ever ask for your recovery phrase or private key. Anyone who does is trying to steal your funds.
2. Add GIWA Sepolia

3. Get test ETH
Test ETH is free. Two faucets send it straight to your address on GIWA Sepolia:
| Faucet | Amount | How often |
|---|---|---|
| GIWA Faucet | Up to 0.005 | Every 24 hours |
| Nodit Faucet | 0.01 | Every 24 hours |
Test ETH is scarce, so GowaFun keeps testnet amounts small. A few thousandths of an ETH is enough to launch a token and make several trades.
4. Or bridge from Ethereum Sepolia
If you already hold Sepolia ETH on Ethereum, you can move it to GIWA with the Superbridge native bridge.

To post in the social feed you also sign a short message to prove you own the address. Signing in costs no gas and sends no transaction.
