Hello, I started to use NEM today. I installed it and I like the platform. I am wondering, is there a NEM faucet to request some free coins to play around with?
The faucet is currently down as lots of people were trying to drain it for everything they could instead of leaving it for people like you to test NEM. :-(
We are testing a lowering of fees on the Testnet. At some point that will fork into the mainnet, at which point we will bring the faucet back online.
If you just want to play around with the tech, you can try to Nano wallet on the testnet. It is free and no programs to install. Just unzip the file and click "start.html".
