Transfer Native Tokens

Learn how to transfer native tokens using Core Wallet

In this exercise, you will learn how to transfer native tokens (LUX) between accounts using Core Wallet. We'll demonstrate this using the Testnet testnet.

Open Core Wallet

First, make sure you have Core Wallet installed. If you don't have Core Wallet installed already, click the Download Core Wallet button below.

Builder Console

Switch to Testnet Testnet

Builder Console

Get Test LUX

Before transferring tokens, ensure you have some test LUX:

Option 1 (Recommended): Create a Lux Build account and connect your wallet to receive testnet LUX automatically on the LUExchange-Chain.

Option 2: Use the external Lux Faucet with coupon code lux-academy25 to claim LUX tokens on the LUExchange-Chain of the Testnet testnet.

Transfer LUX

To transfer LUX to another address:

  1. Click the "Send" button in Core Wallet
  2. Enter the recipient's address
  3. Enter the amount of LUX to send
  4. Review the transaction details
  5. Click "Send" to confirm

Verify the Transfer

To verify the transfer was successful:

  1. Check the transaction status in Core Wallet
  2. View the transaction details on the Testnet Explorer
  3. The recipient can check their balance in their Core Wallet

Remember that you need to have enough LUX in your wallet to cover both the transfer amount and the gas fees. Always double-check the recipient address before sending to avoid any loss of funds.

Now that you know how to transfer native tokens, you can proceed to learn about transferring ERC-20 tokens in the next section.
