Description

Another small docs update @wileyj

wileyj commented 3 years ago

The best way to think about a private-testnet here is that it's a mocknet that uses a standalone bitcoin regtest node for the urn blocks. It will also spin up an explorer instance using the localized data.

Nothing is synced to the overall testnet network however, so requesting funds from the faucet on the testnet network wouldn't work here.

@wileyj thanks for explaining this. I will give one more go with setting up the local env, as it previously was not working and the only way was able to make a successful transaction was by changing the local URL to regtest.

Closing this PR now and back to the drawing board! 🙏🏻

if you can give us more details here, I'm happy to help troubleshoot - it might be useful to open a new issue where we can continue that discussion though. I'm also on discord as jw#4439 if that works better for you.
