SODAX is mainnet-only. Here's why there is no testnet, and how to test and explore SODAX safely on mainnet instead.
Short answer: no. The SODAX SDKs and protocol run on mainnet only. There is no SODAX testnet, and the SDK has no testnet mode or network toggle.
No. Every chain the SDK supports is a mainnet. The canonical chain list in @sodax/types (ChainKeys) contains only *_MAINNET entries — there are no testnet chain configs, no testnet RPC endpoints, and no testnet switch anywhere in the SDK.
Any testnet / TESTNET value you may see in wallet configuration (for example a Bitcoin or Sui wallet provider's network field) is an upstream parameter of that wallet library — it does not enable a SODAX testnet.
SODAX is a cross-chain intents system. Swaps, lending, borrowing, staking and bridging are settled through the Sonic hub against real, deployed contracts and live, solver-provided liquidity. Those primitives have no meaning without production liquidity and deployed spoke contracts, so there is no parallel testnet deployment to point the SDK at.
For how settlement works, see Intents and the Technical Overview.
No — integrate against mainnet. To build and test safely:
Use small amounts on mainnet. Every flow is real, so start with minimal values while you wire things up.
Drive flows headlessly with the private-key wallet providers — see the mainnet smoke scripts in apps/node to exercise integrations without a browser wallet.
