just reviewed that list.  The only ones that "work" are those I've tried already.  The others are listed as defunct sadly.

<p>Why do I keep getting &quot;Wrong Volume&quot; from all the testnet faucets?
What does that mean &amp; how can I fix it?</p>

<p>I'm a developer trying to write an educational &amp; safe testnet/signet/regtest wallet.
I need tBTC for testing &amp; transacting between myself &amp; others.</p>
<p>If there are any kind souls w/ any testnet3 tBTC to spare, here is my address:</p>

<p>1 to 5 tBTC would be helpful (or, indeed, any amount).
Thanks in advance...?</p>
