Test 3: Make your first payments

Now let's practice sending bitcoin in two different ways (using Ark and the Lightning Network respectively).

3.1: Send bitcoin back to Faucetto Signetto

Practice sending by returning some test bitcoin to Faucetto Signetto. Open the contact and tap Send, then choose an amount. This helps recycle test funds for other testers.

Navigate to your contact list again. Tap the paper airplane on "Faucetto Signetto".
Enter an amount, like "500", and tap "Send".
That's it.
3.3: Buy a treat for Byte

Visit this test pet store and buy some virtual treats for Byte, the mascot of the Second team.

Here we test making a payment over the lightning network, which Arké is fully interoperable with.

Visit the Byte Store (link above).
Tap "Buy now" on the "Kibbles 'n Bits" and the copy icon button on the bottom right.
On the "Send" screen, tap the paste button on the right, above the tabs.
Tap "Send" to pay the invoice.
