Regtest is [18444](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/86cfd23f68367af072500b1758a4c446cdd36e74/src/chainparams.cpp#L225), testnet is [18333](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/86cfd23f68367af072500b1758a4c446cdd36e74/src/chainparams.cpp#L164)

That would be the RPC port shared by regtest and testnet, yes.

@ShahadatHossain: confirmation works by mining a block. In regtest you can min a block with `bitcoin-cli --regtest generate 1`

@ShahadatHossain You don't generate blocks with testnet, miners do, just like the Mainnet. I now see your problem with receiving TP Faucet testnet coins, check your question for my answer\.

# Trying to send Bitcoins from testnet to my regtest node

(Asked by: username_0 on 2015-08-13)

1. I send `bitcoin regtest server` BTC to other bitcoin address of same server. I sent 5 BTC but it shows 50 BTC of that account's associated address. It received 5 BTC.

   What's the problem with this account or address?
2. I used <https://tpfaucet.appspot.com/> to get free BTC for regtest server address. I send BTC to many of my addresses but I didn't receive any amount on account associated addresses.

   What's the problem on this server or regtest bitcoin?

The `regtest` system is completely isolated from `testnet` and only exists on your local machine by default, you won't see the transaction from TPs faucet because it isn't on the same network. Blocks in your `regtest` setup can be instantly created using `bitcoin-cli setgenerate true <number of blocks>` each of which will bring into existence 50 BTC in your local wallet for testing with.
