# Swapping on Testnet
Swapping on the testnet is a great way to test out the swap functionality without risking your mainnet assets. The testnet is a separate network from the mainnet, and the assets on the testnet are worthless.
To be exact, `testnet3` bitcoin will be swapped for `stagenet` Monero. You will need to set up two wallets to perform a swap:
Swapping on testnet is a great way to test out the swap functionality without risking your mainnet assets.
The _testnet_ is a separate network from the _mainnet_, only used for testing the blockchains.
The assets on testnet are worthless.
When we talk about "testnet", what we actually mean is the `Testnet3` network for Bitcoin and the `Stagenet` network for Monero.
You will need a wallet in each of these networks to perform a swap.
- A Testnet3 Electrum Wallet (Bitcoin)
- A Stagenet Monero GUI Wallet
Here are the steps to set up the wallets using Electrum and Monero GUI.

From here on you can follow the [Complete your first swap](../usage/first_swap) guide with the difference that you will be using the testnet wallets. The process is the same, but you will be using the testnet wallets instead of the mainnet wallets.
