Thanks very much!

you are welcome,
happy testing!

and explain why you would need 10k for that or why reducing the gas price is not sufficient
testnet faucet idea: Uniswap-style pool for testnet tokens (except no one cares about getting their tokens back). 1) Set up pool contracts that are aware of their counterparts on other ETH networks 2) Validators/miners/others put their earned tokens into the contracts to give liquidity 3) User sends their testnet ETH (maybe even mainnet ETH?) to these contracts referencing a target ETH network, and get a receipt that is replayable on the target network's contract in order to pull ETH out. 4) source and target ETH networks dynamically rebalance their liquidity pools, and thus their relative prices shift according to the supply/demand curves using the x*y=k formula, meaning liquidity never runs out, and people can always buy/sell testnet tokens for each other easily. Note that this is a sybil-resistant mechanism which allows permissionless access to any testnet ETH needed. Relies on altruism of large holders such as network validators/miners. Mainnet pool could even be funded a little bit to encourage new users on testnets to buy mainnet ETH from trying testnet applications (imagine you try a testnet version of Uniswap and make a bunch of trades for testnet ETH, then port that over to earn your first 0.01 ETH for gas money)
wasn't sure where best to put this idea, and it would be a lot of work, but it would be pretty cool
could do a https://gitcoin.co/requests/ to have it funded for their global hackathon as an idea to build
we will be happy to contribute Goerli ETH to the pool
setup a gitcoin request, I am sure that many businesses had bad memories of acquiring test ETH
and they will fund the fix for it
I still don't quite understand why the Genesis block reward couldn't be set to something like 10k ETH per block and then have all the ETH the validators earn dumped into a faucet where people could take as much as they want
Probably a bit too late for that now though lol
@fubuloubu
as there are such "needs" as visible above from superphiz answered by soc1c,
there is a way of request it directly from one of the validators,
with a "good" explanation why a large amount of GöETH is needed,
i guess and also assume that if the explanation is logic and helpful for most participants of goerli as testnet
even larger amounts are getting transferred being completely aware of the DoS-attack possibility--
btw.
i was not even aware of the fact, that people would buy testnet-ETH for real ETH by any chance,
this is a testnet (:
as long as the collateral is priced or is hard to obtain, it should still pass on DoS-resistance even through an exchange
@fubuloubu
thanks for explaining,
i still wonder about the mentioned facts
but i am also happy that we have sort of "inner resistance" against such large amount requests,
as any validator acts responsive/responsible with given testETH/GöETH,
such "large-amount-request" would lead me into a discussion with another validator (:

We have created our L2 payment system for Mysterium.Network and now planning to go into more public testing on testnet. I'm thinking to use Gorli testnet before we're ready to go mainet. Is it possible to get bigger amount of testnet tokens (~1k) so we could create more advanced testing pattern by opening/closing payment channels and registering our "Myst identities" etc.
