The smallest unit for the account balance on Substrate based blockchains (Cere, Polkadot, Kusama, etc.) is Planck (a reference to Planck Length, the smallest possible distance in the physical Universe). You can compare CERE’s Planck to Polkadot’s DOT, BTC's Satoshi or ETH's Wei.
| Unit | Decimal Places | Conversion to Planck | Conversion to CERE |
|---|---|---|---|
| Planck | 0 | 1 Planck | 0.0000000001 CERE |
| Microcere (uCERE) | 4 | 10^4 Planck | 0.0000010000 CERE |
| Millicere (mCERE) | 7 | 10^7 Planck | 0.0010000000 CERE |
| Cere (CERE) | 10 | 10^10 Planck | 1.0000000000 CERE |
| Million (MCere) | 16 | 10^16 Planck | 1,000,000.00 CERE |
CERE are required to make transactions on the Cere network. Tokens on Cere’s Testnets do not have any value besides allowing you to experiment with the features on the network.
Faucets support: Faucet is available for all Cere Testnets: https://stats.cere.network/faucet
You can also earn CERE by becoming a validator on a Cere Testnet network.
