Overview
MainNet and TestNet are separate environments with separate blockchain data. With the MainNet launch on 3/25/2019, coins mined in TestNet do NOT transfer to MainNet.
As of NodeCore 0.4.3 or greater, the same nodecore package can be configured to MainNet or TestNet simply by switching the network in the nodecore.properties file.
By default the network=mainnet.
TestNet has a significantly lower difficulty, such that minimal hash can push through transactions.

Connecting to TestNet
In nodecore.properties file, specify:
network=testnet #OPTIONAL: select specific nodes: peer.external.hosts.testnet=95.216.123.86\:7501,94.130.147.194\:7501,94.130.147.195\:7501
This will create a separate bin\testnet folder, alongside bin\mainnet.

PoW Mine to TestNet
There is a TestNet pool with minimum hash to push through transactions:
- GPU Miner connects to: testnet-pool-gpu.veriblock.org:8501
- GPU Stats Page: https://testnet-pool-gpu.veriblock.org
- CPU Miner connects to: testnet-pool.cpu.veriblock.org:8501
- CPU Stats Page: https://testnet-pool-cpu.veriblock.org
PoP Mine to TestNet
